Mousterian                  

Hallo friend, tell to the children, where you will take us?

Hallo! I'll take you to the middle of the Paleolithic's age, 40 thousands to 220 thousands years ago.

The same as me, also these people are Neanderthal mans from the culture circle micoquien, in the days of 40 thousands years ago in the Russia. The solid habitation has made the basic walls from huge mammoth's bones.

In the location, calls Molodovo, it has been found the rocks used for cooking.

55 thousands years ago, the people has undertaken the long marine sailing over the horizon of the sea, to colonize the Australia. The people were sailing also during the night a hundreds kilometers long distances. They were briliant navigators, oriented by the stars and the constellations. They have had good boats supporting a big reserve of the food and the drink.

150 years ago, the ancerty of Neanderthals, here in Becov in Bohemia (Czech republic), they burn the stone, calls "porcelain", in the fire. After this manner this stone gets different colors. These people crushed him to the powder to process the colors.

These ancestry of Neanderthals were living in the caves of Lazaretto in France, nicely in the warm habitation beside the fire, under the blanket from the fur, of which we found the little bounce paws.

In our age, we laced together the leathers and the furs with help of leather belts, where was possible, for example, with a sharp stone-quip do heavily, side by side, cuts on the border of the leather and with a help of wood sticks lace together with a beautiful, very solid and fine belting.

And here is our animals. In the cold seasons (glacial) we were hunting the mammoths,

but especially the caribou,

the wolves also,               

 but also the bears. 

In the warm seasons (interglacial), the horses were living here. The beaver,

 prehistoric turkey,

the bisons,

the foxes, the rabbits.

And like this, dear chidren, the people lived in the Middle Paleolithic. Ask your teachers, in the museum or in library, where was the closest Middle Paleolithic's camp and make there a trip with your friends, your class or with your parents.

Don't forget to e-mail us, where you can write us, how did you like the guides, if the trails were well marking, if you didn't need to looking for the marking to long, what kind of feeling you have had when you were on the locations of the prehistoric people. Write us, where was the closest restaurant, the kiosk with the souvenirs and the postcards relative to landmark. We are welcoming all of your photographs and the most interesting stories we will publicize with a pleasure.
