daniellopez+FollowEurope’s Oldest Boomerang? Mind-Blown!Archaeologists just found what might be the world’s oldest boomerang in a Polish cave—made from mammoth tusk and nearly 40,000 years old! Not only is it older than any Aussie boomerang, but it also shows early humans were super creative, using ivory instead of wood. The find even hints at ancient rituals and a unique regional style. Imagine tossing a mammoth-tusk boomerang back in the day! #Archaeology #History #Boomerang101Share
susanfoster+FollowEurope’s Oldest Boomerang? Mind Blown!A 40,000-year-old mammoth tusk boomerang just turned up in a Polish cave, and it’s officially Europe’s oldest—and maybe the world’s! This thing looks just like the boomerangs used by Aboriginal Australians today (but it doesn’t come back). Archaeologists say it’s proof that ancient humans in Europe were way more inventive than we thought. Imagine carving a hunting tool from a mammoth tusk 40,000 years ago! #Archaeology #AncientHistory #Boomerang #History70Share
