| Originally when a 17,000 year old seashell was discovered in a hunter-gatherer cave in southern France some 80 years ago, it was thought to be a ceremonial drinking cup. Now markings have been discovered on the shell and the cave walls, establishing that it is actually an ancient music instrument, the oldest known of its kind. related: #seashell #music_instrument |
