Have they found many skeletons that are missing fingers?
- gumballindie 3y agoDont let science and evidence get in the way of a guardian article.
- ggm 3y agoThe number of skeleton finds contemporary to art, and their completeness might be an issue. I know the French found skeletons of Cro Magnon people at Les eyzies (where I have seen the cave paintings)

- tomjakubowski 3y agoHow many cave paintings of hands have survived, compared to the number of complete sets of prehistoric human hands? I believe most fossil finds are of one or two bones, and full or near-full skeletons are rare.
- mkl 3y agoVery few prehistoric skeletons have been discovered complete, and finger bones are small and at extremities, so more likely to go missing. I doubt we could tell unless the removal left obvious signs on the remaining bones.
