• Petralona Cave - Located 50 km from Thessaloniki, Petralona Cave was discovered by chance by villagers from Petralona searching for groundwater. In 1960, they found a skull of a man aged between 25-35 years, considered quite old for the primitive era. This skull is of an archanthropus type, representing a transitional form between Homo erectus and Homo sapiens neandertalensis. The fossilized skull is of great anthropological importance, though experts have not reached a unanimous classification. Paleoanthropologist Aris Poulianos suggests the skull belonged to a man who lived 700,000 years ago, with fire traces dating back 700,000-1,000,000 years, the oldest ever found on earth. Numerous stone and bone tools were also discovered, along with fire traces used for warmth and cooking.
