The Mesolithic men of La Braña

Historical milestone · Valdelugueros, La Montaña de Riaño, León

Image of Valdelugueros, not of the place itself.

In 2006 the remains of two men buried some seven thousand years ago were found in a cave at La Braña; their DNA later made it possible to reconstruct what the hunter-gatherers of the European Mesolithic were like.
