In the cave of Montgrillet, an incredible discovery was made: a remarkably well preserved cave lion skull. A first study by paleontologists Jean Baptiste Fourvel and Nicolas Lateur dated this skull to about 700,000 years during the Pleistocene period. Chantal and Robert from the association «Serre et Calades» are delighted to share with you this fascinating and surprising discovery made by Mr Constant. They will be delighted to share with you all the details surrounding this wonderful find. In addition, you can consult the full text of this study in the journal: «Ardèche Archéologie» number 040, available for sale at the Cité de la Préhistoire in Orgnac l'Aven (07).
