The earliest musical instruments, dating back 40,000 years, have been found by scientists.
A bird-bone flute with five holes drilled into it, and fragments of two flutes made from mammoth tusks were found buried in a cave near Ulm in south-western Germany.
Archaeologist Professor Nicholas Conard said: ‘The flutes demonstrate the earliest modern humans in Europe – around 35,000 to 40,000 years ago – already had a well-established musical tradition.
Find: Professor Nicholas Conard of the University in Tuebingen shows the flute
These musical instruments are part of a package of complex symbolic artefacts that document that early modern humans in Europe were culturally modern.’
