120 Thousand Years of ‘Fur and Leather Workshop’ Discovered


Scientists discovered a fur and leather workshop that dates back to 120,000 years ago in a cave in Morocco. According to the statement, this place was the place where the first people, called homo sapiens, were made of clothes such as fur so that they would not feel cold in cold weather.

This discovery, which shows that Homo sapiens wore clothes such as fur and leather to protect themselves from the cold during the Ice Age, has been so far. one of the earliest archaeological evidence of human clothing counted as.

Animal bones emerged, which the first humans used to swim skin and fur, apparently adorning their clothes with beads like seashells. In this discovery, which is thought to date from 90,000 to 120,000 years ago, tools made of 62 different bones in total found.

In addition to bone tools, a fossil tooth of a whale was found.

Although the tools seem ancient, the scientists say they were highly specialized, because the people homo sapiens learned to make them historical people can be expressed. In addition to the tools for making clothes in the cave, there is also a A tooth from an ancient 113,000-year-old sperm whale found. The researchers state that Homo sapiens could use this tooth to slough off the skin more easily than the bodies of animals.

Although the fur and leather workshop is associated with the Ice Age, which started about 100 thousand years ago, scientists believe that even though it was the Ice Age. that the weather was mild in Morocco at that time., expressed that the workshop may not have been built only to protect from the cold.
