There is a Neanderthal museum in Gibraltar that is amazing. They have digs in that small country that are doing some good work.

The results of an earlier round of sampling in El Castillo cave, published last June1, showed that the oldest of the paintings, a simple red spot, dates to at least 40,800 years ago

Images like that are so frustrating, wish they had placed a modern hand along side for size comparison, variations within sets not with standing. So simple an idea, a child could do it and usually does.
