After last week's #SundayArchaeology thread on #Gravettian 'venus' figurines and #Paleolithic fashion found some interest - how about continuing this week with a closer look at their #headdress? https://t.co/wheQrmSwU0
This graphic motif is not unusual in Palaeolithic art. It appears in numerous caves in the Cantabrian region and the French Pyrenees, suggesting the existence of a network of contacts between the two regions.
Reconstruction (image: Bradshaw Foundation) of the Xagħra Circle site, Għawdex, in the Maltese Islands. A natural cave was modified and monumentalised, and used as a burial site for many generations in the Late Neolithic. 220,000 human bones have been excavated here.

20 years ago today, The King of Fighters 2001 was released on the Neo Geo AES worldwide. It was developed by Eolith and published by Sun Amusement.
A number of these figures also show a couple of details which might be interpreted as headdress - and even #clothing from the Upper #Paleolithic #Gravettian (of which we have little evidence otherwise).

Did people from the Neolithic "burned house horizon" deliberately burn their houses down to kill plague carrying pests? https://t.co/E8HS5nzqeA
Early Neolithic figurine from Macedonia, depicting anthropomorphised house...And a wedding ritual from Macedonia, in which bride and groom entered the groom's house for the first time between the legs of his mother, the mistress of the house. https://t.co/AYh5PoMkry
Looking towards Valentines I had a notion to draw something inspired by The Lovers of Valdaro, a pair of skeletons about 6000 years old. They were discovered by archaeologists at a Neolithic tomb in San Giorgio near Mantua, Italy, in 2007. These will be available as a print soon
📸The Palaeolithic representations appear mainly in two different panels, the main one located in the half-light of the cave’s vestibule, and a second one in the inner chamber. The main panel has 10 depictions, including several deer, two ibexes, one horse and one bovid.

Ġgantija, a neolithic temple complex in Malta.
Said by locals to be built by a giantess once.
Residents and travelers knew about the existence of the temple;before any excavations were carried out, someone drew a plan based on that knowledge, which has been found to be accurate

for my original comic wip i also had to massage it by giving it the prompt "neolithic sacrifice" because my working title is just, boringly, "sacrifice" but these both are so fucking creepy and good i am screaming
The Nordic Gnome caught an amazing sunset at Poulnabrone dolmen (a portal tomb) in the Burren, County Clare today. They enjoy the location for the remoteness of the location. It is of course completely different to what the area looked like when the Neolithic farmers lived here
