A team of archeologists have uncovered a flute in a German cave dating back 35,000 years, showing that early Europeans had an advanced creative culture which included artistic pursuits.
The flute, made from a griffon vulture bone, was assembled from several pieces found in the Hohle Fels cave in southern Germany. It is 8.6-inches (22-centimeters) long and features complex and delicate craftsmanship, shown by its five holes and a notched end.
