Solutrean culture

The Solutrean culture was an early prehistoric people that existed around 20,000 to 15,000 years ago in what is now France and Spain. Known for their exceptional stone tools, particularly beautifully crafted flint blades, they showcased advanced technical skills. The Solutreans were primarily hunter-gatherers, relying on large game and berries for sustenance. Their culture is significant for its potential connections to early human migration patterns in Europe and debates about the peopling of the Americas. The Solutrean hypothesis suggests possible ancient contact between Europe and North America, though this idea remains contentious among archaeologists.
