    your fear of cave bears isnt unreasonable, its evolutionary instinct passed on by your ancestors who likely inhabited the same cave!! Its why kids are scared of the dark, very cool to think about

    the museum up the road in Buxton has loads of carved antler tools found in the locality by local antiquarians such as Thomas Bateman and has a antiquarians study full of mesolithic, neolithic and bronze age goodies. Well worth popping in and seeing.

    Fascinating Will and a great video, the black Spider illustrates that it is a regular interloper to the cave as it has maintained its black colour for camouflage, I can remember sharing a fridge in a house with students and it wasn't cleaned for nearly three years LOL, and when we went to clean it at the end of our tenure we found Albino Spiders living in the (rather dirty) lettuce bin at the bottom of the fridge which no one had used for the last year as it was so full of 'mess' LOL

  • @KathrynLiz1
    @KathrynLiz1 Год назад +1

    One can see why a necklace of deer teeth would be a precious thing indeed because of the hundreds of hours of meticulous work that went into its creation. Such a gift would be one to treasure indeed, and I am sure that back in the Neolithic times that was the case. In some very important ways such technology as the Dremel motor tool has cheapened art of this kind and, while making it more available to more people, has made the artifact less precious in absolute terms, notwithstanding that the spirit in which one makes something with one's own hands to gift to another is the same no matter where in the last several thousand years it was made or how long it took to complete.
    Such things are truly gifts of love, and confer prestige on those to whom they are given. 🙂

  • @floathouse2
    @floathouse2 5 месяцев назад

    Hey Will, if Neolithic tool makers could take as much time as necessary to sharpen a stone ax head, and they were acutely aware of the wheel, why wouldn’t they figure out very quickly how to make and dress a grinding wheel and hook it to some kind of foot treadle? It just seems like it wouldn’t be a stretch for folks that worked in stone for very long periods of time. Sand stone seems like it would be quite easy to shape. I’ll bet you could make one as good at stone working as you are. My instinct tells me they probably had a grinding wheel to reduce the many many man hours of dressing axes and knives. I would be interested in your take on the possibility.

    Always wondered how this cave got it's name, I was there in the late 80s. There appears to be no connection whatsoever to the Germanic deity. Indeed, the spelling "Thor" is both Anglo and more recent, his name is Tor in Nordic tongues
    I wonder.... "Tor" can also be a cliff or tower formation in older British placenames. Maybe
