As I'm attending a conference in Tübingen today for #findsfriday an #IceAge masterpiece that is on display at the University museum: a tiny (4.8 cm lenght) but most splendid figurine from the Swabian Jura - a #horse carved in mammoth ivory some 40,000 years ago - the oldest known sculpture of a horse.

1. A close-up of a small horse figurine carved from mammoth ivory with a weathered surface. The figure features a bowed head and arched neck, and all four legs are broken off. It's displayed on a dark, speckled platform against a black background, with soft lighting highlighting its contours.
