Scientists discover an Upper Paleolithic cave painting of a camel in the Ural Mountains

An ancient image of a two-humped camel has been discovered in the Kapova cave (Southern Urals). The age of the painting is preliminarily estimated to be between 14,500 and 37,700 years, a time when there were no camels in the Southern Urals. This discovery confirms researchers’ belief that artists in the Upper Paleolithic could migrate over long distances.
