During the Ice Age, Creswell Crags was home to many species. Hyaenas denned in caves, dragging in prey, and gnawing on bones. Birds of prey deposited small vertebrates in pellets. And Neanderthals and early modern humans left behind tools, and other evidence of their activities. Thanks to these collectors, we understand what Creswell Crags was like in the Ice Age. 

The event is connected to the University of Nottingham Museum’s exhibition In Search of the Palaeolithic Landscape at Creswell Crags. Find out more about the exhibition here.
