The Gudenus Cave is an archaeological site near Krems in northeastern Austria, used from the Middle Paleolithic through the Late Upper Paleolithic (approximately 16,000–10,000 BC). The deposit contains abundant faunal remains including woolly mammoth, woolly rhinoceros, aurochs, chamois, reindeer, and red deer. Archaeological finds include numerous flint implements associated with Mousterian (Neanderthal) occupation, making it significant for understanding Paleolithic human activity in the Danube region[1].
