Must have been buried with a Basque Country Savings and Loan desk calendar and hanging towel calendar set from 13,500 B.C.

As I remember, there is little evidence of Neanderthal jewelry.

GGG Ping.

An 80,000 year old 'well-worn' necklace was found with the Hobbits.

The goat tooth necklace was found in the posterior region of a male Neanderthal skeleton.

Cool! None of that mass produced tourist trade crap the Cro-Magnons were always spreading around.

Blam, I did a google for "human evolution science running" and came up with quite a bit of interesting information about my theory that long distance running was a key if not THE key in the evolution of humans from other primates preceding and leading towards brain enlargement and technology. Take a look if you get a chance.

Good question. The Neanderthals were around at this time and they made jewelry as well. But then the Neanderthals making elaborate ornaments would not fit into the the template.

Most likely the date. Cro-Magnon Man is the common old school term for the modern humans (who were already in Europe decades earlier) after they started making advanced trinkets out of materials that indicate long distance trade.
