The sandy soil preserved their outlines like ghostly silhouettes. The cause of death? Still a mystery, but it looks like the horse was sacrificed to join its owners in the afterlife.

megangibson+FollowDid This Cave Just Change Human History?Turns out, our origin story is way messier than we thought! Scientists found 60,000-year-old human remains in a European cave that don’t fit the old “out of Africa, one group replaces all” narrative. Instead, it looks like different human lineages overlapped, interbred, and shared caves (and maybe myths) for ages. Add in mysterious skulls from China and ancient footprints in the Americas, and the human family tree is looking more like a wild, tangled bush than a straight line. Mind = blown! #Science #HumanOrigins #Archaeology95Share
