Lime plaster cover of the dead 12,000 years ago – new evidence for the origins of lime plaster technology
A Mousterian Engraved Bone
The appearance of art as a constant component of human culture is attributed to several Upper Paleolithic traditions. The record of earlier artistic manifestations is rather scanty and chronogeographically varied, although crucial for studies of human behavioral evolution. Here we describe an engraved bone from the Middle Paleolithic site of Quneitra, depicting an image similar to that of another artwork found in the same layer. The results of th…
A human face carved on a pebble from the Late Natufian site of Nahal Ein Gev II
There is a paucity of Palaeolithic art in the southern Levant prior to 15 000 years ago.

This article presents a 12 000-year-old example unearthed at the Late Natufian site o…
