40,000-Year-Old Gibraltar Cave Chamber was Home to the NeanderthalsAccording to researchers, further findings on the Neanderthal lifestyle can be learned based on the discovery of an at least 40,000-years-old chamber in a Gibraltar cave. Since 2012, Archaeologists from Gibraltar National Museum have been working to find potential chambers and passages blocked by sediment in Vanguard Cave, which was part of the UNESCO World Heritage site Gorham's Cave Complex.Last month, they found a 13-meter (42-foot) deep chamber at the back of the cave along with other discoveries. The most impressive finding was a large whelk or a marine mollusc that suggests that the newly discovered part of the cave was inhabited by ancient humans.This discovery could hold the key to the lives of the Neanderthals!All images: Gibraltar National Museum#Neanderthals #GibraltarCave #Discovery
