Araguina-Sennola is a prehistoric rock shelter in Bonifacio, Corsica, occupied during the Mesolithic, Neolithic, and Bronze Age as both a habitat and burial site. Its most famous discovery is the "Lady of Bonifacio," a female skeleton carbon-dated to c. 6570 BC, one of the oldest inhumations found on the island. She was buried on her back with arms along her body and skull rotated to the right. The remains are now displayed at the Prehistoric Museum of Levie.
