Artistic Neanderthals
To date:
- Five different musical instruments have been associated with Neanderthals including a cave bear-bone flute from Slovenia.
- Discoveries of Neanderthal cave paintings have also been published, as well as small, carved figurines.
- Often there exists uncertainty as to which art belongs to Cro-Magnons and/or Neanderthals.
