Isn’t she just! There weren’t any material goods found in Grotte Margaux itself, we based the badger tooth pendant and other objects on finds and animals from other Mesolithic sites. I don’t think any of the ochre from the cave made it onto the bust, but having ochre on her forehead was considered!
