Found in the Urals, a bone spent 14 years in the vault
It's time for sensational discoveries! In the materials of his last expedition experts found the remains of a man who lived in the age of cave lions and mammoths, that was the first time for the Ural. At the moment, scientists will have to determine genetic composition found the bones, and install what race lived thousands of years ago in the Ural land.
"We make the assumption that the found bone belongs to ancient man. But the specific age of the remains of the set examination. At the moment there are only a couple of laboratories conducting research of this type. In this regard, we decide now, exactly where to send samples of the material," says Paul and Kosintsev, member of the Institute of ecology of plants and animals, Ural branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
It is important that the bone itself was excavated a long time ago. For 14 years she was with the other artifacts found, then, in Kamyshanskii the cave was in the vault. In the year 2000. during excavations on the Chusovaya river were found on various materials, among which were specified the thigh. But only now, in 2014. had the opportunity to begin her study.
Today, one can only assume that the person whose remains were found, was a contemporary of the mammoth. The bones of these animals found in the cave. By this time, the researchers found only the approximate age of the remains, namely: more than 10 thousand years. A special value of the findings lies in the fact that it is a single sample of human remains found directly in the Urals.
It is noted that if confirmed assumptions of experts, then they will be able to understand exactly how and when in the Urals appeared first people.
