Cro-Magnon

Cro-Magnon refers to a population of early modern humans that lived in Europe around 40,000 to 10,000 years ago. They are considered anatomically similar to people today and are known for their advanced tools, cave art, and social structures. Cro-Magnons are often associated with the Upper Paleolithic period and are believed to have coexisted with Neanderthals. Their cultural practices suggest a complex society engaged in hunting, gathering, and artistic expression, marking a significant stage in human evolution and cultural development.
