The first Neanderthal ornament in the Iberian Peninsula on TV3's Telenotícies

This is explained by Antonio Rodríguez-Hidalgo, researcher at IPHES-CERCA

Eagle talons are regarded as the first elements used to make jewelry by Neanderthals, a practice which spread around Southern Europe about 120,000 and 40,000 years ago. Now, for the first time, researchers found evidence of the ornamental uses of eagle talons in the Iberian Peninsula. An article published in the cover of the journal Science Advances talks about the findings, which took place in the site of the cave Foradada in Calafell (Tarragona, Spain).
