Combe-Capelle

Combe-Capelle is a Paleolithic and Epipaleolithic site in the Couze valley, Périgord, Southern France, with Henri-Marc Ami conducting excavations there from the late 1920s until his death in 1931 [1]. In 1909, a notable Homo sapiens fossil was discovered at the site and sold to the Museum für Völkerkunde in Berlin in 1910 [1]. The specimen was long classified as a 30,000-year-old Upper Paleolithic Cro-Magnon individual, representing one of the earliest known modern human finds in Europe [1].
