He Was Buried in Siberia 24,000 Years Ago - and Connected Europe, Asia, and America
The Mal’ta site in Siberia stands as one of the most advanced Ice Age settlements ever discovered, dating back as far as 25,000 years. Excavations have revealed bone houses, sophisticated blades, carved ivory figurines, ornamental beads, and tools unmatched in complexity for their era. These people lived through the Last Glacial Maximum yet produced artwork and craftsmanship equal to anything found in Upper Paleolithic Europe. Genetic studies on a 24,000-year-old child buried at Mal’ta show deep connections to Europe, West Asia, and the first Americans. The site reveals a forgotten Ice Age culture that shaped the human story in ways we are only beginning to understand.
