Chatelperronian

The Chatelperronian is a prehistoric culture that existed in France about 35,000 to 30,000 years ago, during the Upper Paleolithic period. It is characterized by a distinctive set of stone tools and artifacts that show traits of both Neanderthals and early modern humans. The tools include blades and points, often made from flint, and reflect advancements in technology and craftsmanship. The Chatelperronian is significant for its insights into the interaction between different human species and the transition from Neanderthal to modern human societies in Europe.
