20,000 year old artifacts discovered in Quang Tri

Archeologists from the Quang Tri Museum and the Vietnam Institute of Archeology have unearthed hundreds of artifacts believed to belong to the early Hoa Binh culture dating back to about 15,000-20,000 years ago at an excavation site in central Quang Tri province.

The findings at the Bat Cave (Hang Doi) site in Cam Lo District include axes and chopping and grinding tools made from stone. The scientists also found the remains of two cooking stoves.

The excavation is still underway. (VNA)
