The prehistoric Sopeña cave in county Onís keeps providing surprising and fantastic finds to Asturian archaeologist (and member of this forum) Ana Pinto.
Since she started researching this cave in 2001 thousands of items have been found, among the most recent are elaborate ornaments and ocre crayons of different colours, used as body paint by the old cavemen and women.
