Melting ice reveals Stone Age finds as ancient glaciers vanish
Original: The oldest ice disappears and the Stone Age emerges from it
Scientists report that receding glaciers and perennial ice are disappearing at record pace, and as they melt, organic remains from the Stone Age — tools, weapons and other artefacts previously preserved for thousands of years — are emerging from the ice. Researchers are racing to recover and document these finds before they deteriorate once exposed to air and weather.
Why now: Climate-driven glacier melt is both destroying ancient ice archives and unexpectedly exposing well-preserved Stone Age artefacts
