  1. **Mammoth ivory horse figurine from Vogelherd**

    Upper Paleolithic period, Aurignacian culture, ca. 32,000

    Found in 1931 (Gustav Riek’s excavation) in Vogelherd Cave, Lone Valley, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

    Dimensions: 2.5 x 4.8 x 0.7 cm (is broken along the longitudinal axis and is therefore only available as a half-relief today).
