Museum Ulm – lion man

The lion man from Hohlenstein-Stadel in the Lone Valley is a 35,000 to 41,000 year old sculpture made of mammoth ivory depicting a human with the head and limbs of a cave lion.

The sculpture comes from the Upper Palaeolithic culture of the Aurignacian and is one of the oldest small works of art known to mankind.
