...so it wasn't one beaver. There were at least two, an adult and at least one juvenile. Those beavers are very used to be around people and I can often watch them from a heavily frequented path along the river.

I really love ulus, I always have a look for them in ethnology museums. By far the biggest and most diverse collection I have ever seen was in the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen. It's likely one of the biggest collections of Inuit artifacts in the world.

Btw, the one on the original photo is from the Landesmuseum Konstanz and the most famous one of its kind. There are however some other ones on the Pfahlbau-Museum in Unteruhldingen.

Dieser Kommentar wäre jetzt wirklich nicht nötig gewesen. Ich habe einen Fehler gemacht für den ich mich auch gleich entschuldigt habe. Da jetzt gleich zu Beleidigen ist echt nicht angezeigt.

Sorry, that was really a mistake by me, I somehow forgot that this was neolithic. I am very well aware of ulus and have a very big interest in them, including their history. I even made one myself.

I find it always so frustrating how people find ignorance totally understandable or are sometimes even proud about it.

Oh yes, this is every time so incredibly annoying.

Yes, but of course they only survived due to the nature of the used materials. Wooden artifacts from that age hardly ever survived.

It's not unlikely that they had comparably much free time to make stuff like that. We can be also pretty sure they built some sort of shelters, perhaps tents from wood and hides. We just have no remains of them. But caves as shelters were of course a comparably rare thing to find.

Similar to dog breeds with "long" heads. They aren't really longer, but just very narrow compared to other dogs.

Perhaps, perhaps not. But keep in mind that a huge amount of human crafts were made in rather bad light conditions, in buildings with bad light and without electricity and during times of the year with little sunlight.

Kepp in mind that the original sculpture had probably longer legs that are lost now. And of course this figure is just tiny, only a few centimeters.

Yes it is.

In Dänemark habe ich Kühe auch direkt durchs flache Wasser am Meer laufen sehen.

On the other hand, yaks aren't living that far away there.
May 29, 2025 at 8:57 PM
And now there are even grotesque AI abominations labeled as yaks in the stock sites.

I suppose this was probably an erroneously labeled stock photo.

Like this small herd of highland cattle here around.
May 29, 2025 at 4:24 PM
Exactly. It's highland cattle.
