These decorated bone slips were found during excavations at Cairn H, one of the Neolithic passage tombs at Loughcrew.

They date to the 1st century AD, and they were found along with other material from the Iron Age, showing that the Neolithic tomb continued as a place of importance for millennia

Also, the neolithic dating of the carvings is not certain 👍

#StandingStoneSunday chancing across the Merry Maidens stone circle in West Penwith, #Cornwall, as we dropped down to Newlyn was a real delight.

Heaven knows how this perfect circle has survived 4500 years of landscape change since the Late Neolithic/early Bronze Age 🥰

Stanydale Temple - a Neolithic structure located 3 miles east of Walls on the west mainland of Shetland. Referred to as a ‘temple’ by Charles Calder who excavated the site in the 1940s, its purpose is unknown, though possibly ceremonial. 📸 My own. #Archaeology #Shetland

Just a reminder, that possibly the oldest piece of palaeoart dates to the Neolithic. The petroglyphs of horned characters with trumpets, recorded on the same rock as a ornithischian footprints (Zagaje Formation) in Poland, might be an early reconstruction of the Jurassic tracemaker.

The last time you could have reasonably said Nothing Ever Happens was probably 10,000 BCE, in the days right before the Neolithic revolution.

And once we added beer to the equation, forget it. Something Happened every few minutes after that.

#FindsFriday A set of walrus-tusk and whalebone pendants, from around 3000 BC!

These may have been strung together with small beads to form a necklace

Found at Skara Brae Neolithic village in Orkney, Scotland

A hug that has lasted 6000 years! 🫂 🤍 They are the "Lovers of Valdaro", two skeletons dating back to the Neolithic era found in an eternal embrace in a necropolis near Mantova (Italy) in 2007.

Thanks for the shout-out That was true for the specific case of Central Ohio Valley. Sadly there are not a ton of matched Paleo/meso/neolithic sequences in the same location with x-rays (I suspect because if archeologists have money they would rather pay their own grad students to dig/measure stuff

Interesting row of upright stones used as a field wall which could be from the Neolithic period and be 4,000 to 5,000 years old. I’ve seen them in various parts of the country. These from a walk in Lancashire this week (one of 3 still to write up - I’m behind!).

I guess in the 1940s the interpretation of Tenple was fairly standard for an unusual Neolithic building. I wonder, though, how would it be roofed, if it was indeed a Neolithic house? Thats a wide span.

One of the huge blocks to the north-east of Long Meg. Burl mentions that some of the stones that make up the circle could not have been moved by less than '135 well-organised workers'. #StandingStoneSunday #Cumbria

Finns are ~70% European hunter-gatherers and ~20% Ancient North Eurasians.

Notice the near absence of Early Neolithic Farmer from Anatolia.

WHG were largely replaced in parts of Europe where farming was viable. They continued hunting and gathering in the north
