🎧 Listen to Introduction
The steep limestone cliffs on the east side of the Rock of Gibraltar contain four caves with archaeological and paleontological deposits that provide evidence of Neanderthal habitation for more than 100,000 years. Unique testimony to the cultural traditions of the Neanderthals, mainly reflected in the hunting of birds and marine animals for food, the use of feathers as ornaments, and abstract rock carvings. Scientific research on these sites has made a significant contribution to the debate on Neanderthal and human evolution.
