"Researchers have identified what they say are the oldest-known musical instruments in the world.
The flutes, made from bird bone and mammoth ivory, come from a cave in southern Germany which contains early evidence for the occupation of Europe by modern humans - Homo sapiens.
Scientists used carbon dating to show that the flutes were between 42,000 and 43,000 years old."

In Cave of Forgotten Dreams, Werner Herzog films inside the Chauvet caves of Southern France, capturing the oldest known pictorial creations of humankind - over 32,000 years. The film is absolutely beautiful and fascinating. One part I found amusing was when an anthropologist played the American Anthem on an end blown bone flute they found inside the cave. He played it quite well without any meri or kari.
