Neanderthal landscape, artwork
Neanderthal landscape. Artwork showing a Neanderthal (Homo neanderthalensis, far right behind tree) watching grey wolves (Canis lupus, foreground). In the background are other mammals of the Late Pleistocene (130, 000 to 10, 000 years ago). Woolly mammoths (Mammuthus primigenius) are crossing the river. The animals on the rivers near shore, from left to right, are: red deer (Cervus elaphus), horses (Equus caballus), woodland rhinoceroses (Stephanorhinus sp.) and aurochs (Bos primigenius). This scene is based on fossils found in the Iberian Peninsula, at the Butarque site

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Neanderthal Landscape" takes us back in time to the Late Pleistocene era, offering a glimpse into the world of our ancient ancestors. In this stunning artwork, we find ourselves immersed in a lush forested landscape, teeming with diverse wildlife. At the forefront of the scene, a Neanderthal figure stands partially hidden behind a tree trunk, observing intently as grey wolves roam freely before him. The presence of these majestic creatures adds an element of both danger and companionship to this prehistoric tableau. As our gaze moves towards the background, we witness an awe-inspiring sight: woolly mammoths gracefully crossing a river. These magnificent beasts are joined by other mammals that once roamed the Iberian Peninsula during that time period – red deer, horses, woodland rhinoceroses, and aurochs. The level of detail in this illustration is remarkable; it is based on actual fossils found at the Butarque site in Spain. Through this artwork, we gain insight into not only the fauna but also how early humans coexisted with these animals as hunters or prey. This image serves as a testament to our shared history with nature and reminds us of our deep connection to the animal kingdom. It invites contemplation about our own origins and sparks curiosity about what life was like for those who came before us.
