In 2008, archaeologists discovered fragments of flutes carved from vulture and mammoth bones at a Stone Age cave site in southern Germany called Hohle Fels. They were carved and played by Homo sapiens. These flutes are ancient, dating back 42,000 to 43,000 years, making them the oldest flutes in the world.
The oldest Homo sapiens flutes, that is. There is at least one flute made by a Neanderthal that is older. Found at a Neanderthal campsite at Divje Babe in northwestern Slovenia, the Neanderthal flute is estimated to be over 43,000 years old and perhaps as much as 80,000 years old.
The video above features Ljuben Dimkaroski, who plays trumpet for the Ljubljana Opera Orchestra, and who helped archaeologists figure out how to play the prehistoric flute. Don’t worry! He is playing a clay replica, not the original.
God, the sound of this went right through me, right to my soul, and tugged.
The spiritualist in me is having a field day right now. This is fantastic.
That’s the coolest thing I’ve ever seen in my life
Does necromancy only work on animals? What do you do if you accidentally necromancy a fence and then it starts growing branches?
WHAT DO YOU DO IF YOU NECROMANCY A BOTTLE OF SHAMPOO AND IT TURNS INTO AN ENTIRE PILE OF LIMES?
What if I accidentally necromancy a vaccine and then someone gets an armful of very live pathogen?
WHAT’S THE LIMIT ON DEADNESS? HOW RECENTLY DOES SOMETHING HAVE TO BE DEAD? COULD I NECROMANCY A DINOSAUR FOSSIL? WHAT IF I NECROMANCIED THE GROUND AND THEN DINOSAURS STARTED APPEARING?
WHAT IF I NECROMANCIED A LIMESTONE WALL AND IT JUST TURNED INTO A PILE OF MOLLUSCS? WHAT IF I MOLLUSCED A BUILDING? A MOUNTAIN?
Hey OP are you okay
no
The verb form of Molly’s mollusks
What if you necromance a bar of lead and it turns into uranium? You’ve opened up a treasure chest op
If you keep necromancing the same thing over and over does it eventually turn into a star?
IF YOU NECROMANCE THE STAR OVER AND OVER WILL IT CREATE ANOTHER BIG BANG
Average necromancer: I will use my skeleton army to DESTROY THE KINGDOM
Blad-the-inhaler: One kingdom? Lazy.
I had a dream one time about a Necromancer who couldn’t control his powers, so he had to be really careful about where he slept since you never knew where there are ancient burial plots.
