Remains of a necklace or bracelet made by Neanderthals have been found in Croatia.
The jewelry components were claws of white-tailed eagles. The claws bear multiple edge-smoothed cut marks, Frayer and his team determined, after studying the finds.
The claws, dated to 130,000 years ago, also appear to have been polished before they were likely strung and then worn on either the wrist or neck.
White-tailed eagles, also called “sea eagles,” are still around today. They are large birds of prey that are closely related to bald eagles. hey just admired the strength and beauty of these majestic birds.
