Châtelperron Cave

Châtelperron Cave, located in France, is an important archaeological site revealing evidence of early humans called Neanderthals, who lived around 45,000 years ago. The cave contains tools, ornaments, and bones that suggest Neanderthals made complex items like jewelry and used advanced hunting techniques. Notably, it shows possible interactions or cultural exchanges between Neanderthals and early modern humans. This site helps scientists understand how Neanderthals adapted, created culture, and possibly influenced the development of human behavior during the Late Paleolithic period.
