Archaeologists unearthed fossilized facial bones in a Spanish cave, representing the oldest known human face in Western Europe.
These remarkable remains, belonging to an extinct early human species, are estimated to be between 1.1 and 1.4 million years old.
The find indicates the presence of at least two distinct early human populations in the region during the early Pleistocene.
This significant discovery adds vital pieces to the puzzle of early human migration and evolution in Europe.
