What impressed me most was a delicately crafted semicircular scraper made of chert

Am I the only one who read this and thought, " boy, Huang really needs to get laid."

"The items are surprisingly similar to the European Mousterian culture, and there is no essential difference between early stone items of the East and West," said Huang Weiwen,

I'm sure they were.

Could these have been the Tocharians?

Chinese archaeologists say they have uncovered strong evidence that Stone Age people in southern East Asia were at least as technologically advanced as their European cousins -- challenging the long-standing theory of "two cultures".

Uh-huh, nice propaganda.

Maybe the Chinese Stone Agers sent a few spies to hang out around the European Stone Agers so they could duplicate the technology back home?

An artificial stone floor, a typical characteristic of advanced Stone Age, was also discovered at the Dahe site. The 30-square-meter cave floor was paved with white-yellow limestone.

That explains this mysterious cave painting.
