Melting ancient ice reveals Stone Age finds

Original: The oldest ice disappears and the Stone Age emerges from it

Melting glaciers and ice patches are exposing Stone Age artefacts that had been frozen for thousands of years, as climate change accelerates the loss of some of the world's oldest ice. Archaeologists are racing to recover and preserve these finds before exposed organic material degrades.

Why now: Rising global temperatures are melting ancient ice, revealing archaeological remains while destroying the ice archive itself.
