Hi friends! 👋🏽 This #FridayPaleoArt we will move away from the rainy lands of the north to visit an extraordinary cave in the south 🌞

Cave: #Navarro
Place: Málaga (Spain)
Motif: ideomorphs
Chronology: Pre-Magdalenian
We refer to the Cueva de Navarro, located in the province of Malaga (Andalusia, Spain), in the extreme south of Europe.
The cave was discovered by chance in 1979, when its galleries were intercepted by the Navarro Quarry front, and it was published for the first time in 1981 by José Luis Sanchidrián 📖🔎.

Hello guys! 👋Our third day at the Cueva de Chufín has been very productive! 💪🏽

In parallel to the excavation of the site, part of the team has been developing a surface survey of the interior of the cavity, …but what does this work consist of ⁉️⁉️ Image
When we are in a cave with parietal art, we must consider the possible remains that prehistoric artists and visitors left behind. They provide us with data about the chronology, the caving progression, the lighting systems, the artistic operative chain, etc. 🔥👣🧐
The study of this Internal Archaeological Context has its own methodology that goes through a meticulous and methodical examination of the underground surfaces, such as the walls and the floor.📝👀 Image

🙋‍♀️Hi everyone! Today is #FridayPaleoArt and we’re visiting Chufín cave in Cantabria, one of the @UNESCO World Heritage sites of Cantabrian Region.

Cave: #Chufín
Place: Riclones (Cantabria, Spain)
Motif: Red paintings and engravings
Chronology: #Premagdalenian
⁉️Chufin cave, also known as the cave of Moro Chufín, is located on a cliff above the reservoir of La Palombera, at the confluence of the rivers Lamasón and Nansa, in Cantabria. It was discovered in 1972 by Manuel de Cos Borbolla and the reservoir guard Primo González. ⚓️
➡️The rock art of this cave is made up of two main groups: the indoor paintings and the outer engravings. The group of red paintings inside the cave was discovered on 30 March 1972, and shortly afterwards Martín Almagro identified the group of rock engravings on the outside.

Hi friends! ✨ Today is #FridayPaleoArt and we're moving to French Pyrenees to visit an excellent cave ⛰.

Cave: #Marsoulas
Place: Marsoulas (Haute-Garonne, Francia)
Motif: horse, aurochs, goat, ideomorphs, etc.
Chronology: #Magdalenian
⁉️ The cave is made up of a rectilinear passage with a total development of 70 m, where the wall art only takes up 50 m. It is made up of more than 340 figures, including zoomorphs, ideomorphs and various marks.
➡️The techniques used by the artists who frequented the cavity were fine engraving and the application of red and black colorants, in some cases taking advantage of the natural relief of the rock to complete the figures.

Cave: #Cougnac cave
Place: Lot, France
Motif: Wounded man, animals and marks
Chrono: Multiphase Image
This pioneer #14CAMSdating was carried out on a sample of pigment from a black punctuation of this wall👆⚫️. The analysis was executed by H. Valladas, H. Cachier and M. Arnol of #CNRS (Laboratory Gif-sur-Yvette). RESULT: 14290 +-180 BP Image
The Spectrometric Mass Accelerator (AMS) applied on radiocarbon analysis revolutionized the Archeology (and of the Paleolithic Art study, of course!). This first dating was carried out in #Tandetron accelerator and with only 0.80 mg of datable carbon (sample AFTER pretreatment).

Hi there! This #FridayPaleoArt we are on holidays, so we woke up late! 🤭Let's go!

Cave: #Cualventi
Place: Oreña, Alfoz de Lloredo, Cantabria
Motif: Deer
Chornology: #Magdalenian
🗺️Cualventi Cave is located in the district of Perelada (Oreña, Alfoz de Lloredo, Cantabria), 2 km from Altamira. The cave opens in the wall of a wide and shallow doline, inside a small valley close to the coast.
⁉️ It's a large rock shelter with two openings. The lower one, #LaCovacha, is a small cave linked with the karst system and was obstructed during the Magdalenian. The upper one, #Cualventi, is located 4m above and provides direct access to the fossil floors of the karst. 🤔
