西班牙考古学家在巴塞罗那西部的卡佩拉德斯阿布里克·罗马尼岩居遗址发现了597件尼安德特人木制工具遗存，年代距今62000至40000年1。这批发现包括长矛、挖掘棍、树皮盘、住所部件和木棍等多种器物1。
这些木制工具之所以能够保存至今，是因为矿物质水形成的石灰质外壳将其包裹，木质腐烂后在石质外壳内留下了空心模具1。该研究成果已发表在《科学进展》期刊上1。这一发现表明尼安德特人的工艺技能和环境适应能力远超既有认知1。
Archaeologists working in western Barcelona have uncovered 597 wooden tool artifacts attributed to Neanderthals at the Abric Romaní rock shelter site near Capellades, Spain.1 The tools, which date between 62,000 and 40,000 years ago, include spears, digging sticks, bark trays, dwelling components, and previously undocumented wooden implements.1 The discovery was published in the journal Science Advances.1
The exceptional preservation of these wooden artifacts resulted from a distinctive geological process in which mineral-rich water formed calcareous shells around the organic materials.1 As the wood decayed over millennia, these mineral deposits left behind hollow molds that captured the precise form of the original tools.1 The range of implements discovered demonstrates that Neanderthals possessed sophisticated craftsmanship and adaptive capabilities that exceed previous scholarly understanding of their technical abilities.1
