Oldest Neanderthal fingerpint found
Ferrari Press Agency
Fingerprint 1
Ref 16903
16/06/2025
See Ferrari text
Picture MUST credit: Álvarez-Alonso et al. 2025
Archaeologists say they have found the oldest Neanderthal fingerprint.
It was impressed on a painted boulder, dating back to 43,000 years and done to add a nose on what to the ancient humanoid race was perceived as a face on the rock.
The rock , a piece of granite, is decorated with a red ochre pigment spot, which is the oldest known symbolic object containing the most complete Neanderthal fingerprint.
It was discovered in Spain In July 2022 during excavation of prehistoric rock shelter believed used by Neanderthals, at an archaeological site at Mousterian, San Lázaro, in central Spain.
Researchers used multispectral techniques and forensics to identify that the mark on it came from a human.
They obtained high-resolution, detailed images of the surface, from three micro-samples taking extra care to minimise damage.
Researchers think the rock was collected from a riverbed and transported to the interior of the rock shelter.
Ochre was applied specifically with the tip of a finger soaked in pigment.
The team, from the University of Madrid, the Geological and Mining Institute of Spain and the Spanish National Research Council, thinks the rock was a visual symbol, resembling a human face with eyes, a mouth, and a nose.

Sweet 116: town throws birthday bash for America’s oldest person, Edie Ceccarelli.
Parade honours Edie Ceccarelli, who says the secret to her longevity is a little red wine and minding her own business.
In the small, northern California town of Willits, the birthday of Edie Ceccarelli - the oldest person in the US - has become a bit of a holiday.
Well into her 100s, she would throw herself huge birthday parties at a local events hall, or at a senior centre - and invite the whole town. But for the past few years, the town has taken over, organising a parade in her honour.
Neighbors walk the street with balloons in a parade for Edie’s 116th birthday parade celebration in Willits, California.

World's oldest rocking horse is restored, Kettering, Northamptonshire - 31 Aug 2017
The world's oldest surviving playground ROCKING HORSE has been restored to its former glory - after it was found rusting in a DITCH and sold on eBay. The ride, which is believed to be 90 YEARS OLD, was one of the attractions invented by Charles Wicksteed for his Wicksteed Park amusement park in Kettering, Northamptonshire. The rocking horse was discovered in a ditch near Margate by a salvage yard and put up for sale on eBay, where it was seen by Charles' great-grandson, Oliver Wicksteed. He bought the ride, nicknamed Rocky by park staff, for £400 and it was lovingly restored by staff at Wicksteed Playgrounds, the manufacturing business set up by Charles, which is still based in the town. It has now been placed back in Wicksteed Park, next to its free playground, where it is being enjoyed by children once more as part of a project to bring the history of children's play to life.

The world's oldest Rocking Horse after it was found in a ditch in Margate and before restoration.
World's oldest rocking horse is restored, Kettering, Northamptonshire - 31 Aug 2017
The world's oldest surviving playground ROCKING HORSE has been restored to its former glory - after it was found rusting in a DITCH and sold on eBay. The ride, which is believed to be 90 YEARS OLD, was one of the attractions invented by Charles Wicksteed for his Wicksteed Park amusement park in Kettering, Northamptonshire. The rocking horse was discovered in a ditch near Margate by a salvage yard and put up for sale on eBay, where it was seen by Charles' great-grandson, Oliver Wicksteed. He bought the ride, nicknamed Rocky by park staff, for £400 and it was lovingly restored by staff at Wicksteed Playgrounds, the manufacturing business set up by Charles, which is still based in the town. It has now been placed back in Wicksteed Park, next to its free playground, where it is being enjoyed by children once more as part of a project to bring the history of children's play to life.
