摘要
Back in the year 1931, a number of artefacts were discovered in the Marsoulas Cave in Southern France. One such item was a large conch or sea snail shell that was believed to be a communal or ceremonial cup used by the Magdelenian hunter-gatherers who roamed the region surrounding the Pyrenees Mountains towards the end of the last ice age.
Recently, the items from the cave have been re-examined and using modern, high-tech imaging technology, researchers have realised that this conch shell is not a cup but a musical instrument.
This is because the shell was purposefully re-shaped by humans, engineered in such a way to produce clear and distinct musical notes, C, D and C Sharp and at the end of this video, I’ll show you exactly how the instrument sounds.
Watch this video to learn about this incredible discovery, see detailed pictures and also hear the ancient instrument being played.
