MUSEUM OF PREHISTORY. Corona, 36
The new permanent exhibition of the Museum of Prehistory of Valencia, Hunter and gatherer societies, raises a transversal discourse that starts in Africa seven million years ago to talk about climate evolution and human adaptation to changes, of the way of life (focus control, hunt, housing…), of the emergence of symbology, of the disappearance of the Neanderthals and what remains of them in the DNA. It is structured chronologically to understand the different ecosystems that have succeeded each other over the centuries and goes into the most important sites of the period 350.000-12.000 a.C. In Valencian lands, like the Cova del Parpalló de Gandia, of which painted and engraved plaques from more than thirty thousand years ago are on display, one of the best representations of European furniture art.
