This print showcases the remarkable prehistoric bear jaws, known as C015 / 6762. These fossilized jaw bones belong to an extinct bear species called Ursus dolinensis and were discovered in the Gran Dolina cave located in the Sierra de Atapuerca foothills near Burgos, Spain. The excavation took place between 1991 and 1996 at the TD-4 level, which dates back approximately 800,000 years. The limestone caves within this region have been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to their rich collection of prehistoric fossils and artifacts. This particular image provides a glimpse into our ancient past, shedding light on the diverse fauna that once roamed these lands during the Stone Age. With its meticulous studio shot presentation against a clean backdrop, this photograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of these magnificent teeth.
