Die geschnitzten Elfenbeinobjekte der #IceAgeArt der Schwäbischen Alb enthalten rätselhafte Gravierungen.
Neue Studien: Die Struktur der Zeichen ähnelt überraschend stark frühen Stadien der Schriftentwicklung,
z.B. Zeichen auf mesopotamischen Tontafeln – einer Vorstufe der sumerischen Keilschrift. 🏺

As a kid, Dr. April Nowell, a Paleolithic archaeologist and Professor of Anthropology in our department, always loved history and wanted to be directly involved in discovering it.  When her mom came across an ad in the local newspaper asking for volunteers to work on a site in Old Montreal, she jumped at the chance!  One week of excavating and this 18-year-old was hooked. Quoted in the local newspaper, who knew that this moment in 1987 would kick off a career leading to interviews with the CBC, The Globe and Mail, The Washington Post, Smithsonian Magazine, CNN, and more! 

 

💡 April is still out there digging, but today her research focuses on reconstructing the lives and contributions of Ice Age kids and teenagers to human cultural evolution with recent publications on children making ceramics and on how teens experienced puberty in the Upper Paleolithic. 

  

🌍 She also collaborates with colleagues on the study of cave art in southern Australia and on the lifeways of early humans in Jordan where her team uncovered tools with the world’s oldest identifiable blood on them. We now know that 350,000 years ago, these hunter-gatherers ate everything in their environment from ducks to rhinos!  

   

📕Dr. Nowell’s groundbreaking work is captivating audiences worldwide, especially with her book, Growing Up in the Ice Age and the Nature of Things documentary Little Sapiens featuring work with Drs. Mary Lewis and Jennifer French on CBC-Gem and will soon be broadcast in France and Japan. She's even got a Wikipedia page! Talk about making history

I went to Museum Ancient Cultures in Tübingen to see around 40 000 years old mammoth ivory figurines. They were mind boggling. I bought myself a piece of at least 10 000 years old mammoth ivory too. I just love prehistory.

die berühmte, mehrfach aus hunderten von Segmenten neu zusammengesetzte Skulptur "Der Löwenmensch" (Höhle Hohlensteinstadel, #SchwäbischeAlb, Mu Ulm) keine "schamanistische" Mensch-Tier-Figur, sondern ein aufrecht stehender Bär?
es bleibt spannend, auch das Alter (bisher: ca 40 000 Jahre) #iceageart

Image credit: Robitaille et al., 2024, PLOS ONE, CC-BY 4.0. The engraving, located in the central part of a fragmented, flat-surfaced plaquette, measures 6 cm by 5 cm. The fish is fusiform in shape, showing the head, dorsal, and ventral sections, with a partially visible forked tail. The fish was engraved first, with a net added afterward, placing the fish at the center.

“The Vogelherd horse”– a miniature masterpiece of #IceAgeArt. This astonishingly graceful work is the oldest known sculpture of a horse. Less than 5 cm long, it was crafted in woolly mammoth ivory with flint tools over 35,000 years ago.’

Pencil sketch of Megaloceros, the view is a down shot from behind and the deer’s giant antlers are most clearly visible.

The final painting inspired by the sketch- the view is a wide shot of the mammoth steppe, and Megaloceros’ giant antlers are spotlit as the animal looks away from the viewer towards the horizon.

No, it is most likely homo sapiens who had just arrived in Central Europe at that time. A number of comparable small ivory sculptures from this period were found in the caves of the Swabian Alps. #iceageart

sorry, but the two wonderful parts (the third part in between is missing) were probably not part of a "larger figure" - they were newly examined by a restorer from the lmw and he found no signs of this #iceageart #ältesteKunst #unescoworldheritage
