12,000-year-old flutes carved of bone are some of the oldest in the world and sound like birds of prey

Archaeologists have unearthed a group of 12,000-year-old flutes carved out of fowl bones at a prehistoric website in Israel. When performed, the artifacts mimic the calls of sure birds of prey.

The positioning, referred to as Eynan-Mallaha (often known as Ain Mallaha), was as soon as occupied by the Natufians, a cultural group that had been the final hunter-gatherers within the Levant, a area that spans the land across the jap Mediterranean, in response to a research printed Friday (June 9) within the journal Scientific Reviews.
