Found in Siberia, and apparently Dating back to the Denisovan species of early humans, scientists have confirmed this bracelet is 40,000 years old. making it the oldest piece of jewellery ever discovered.
The bracelet was discovered at a site now known as Denisova Cave, in the Altai region of Siberia in 2008. after detailed analysis, Russian experts now accept that the bracelet’s age is authentic.

Scientists explained it away, sorry, concluded, that it must have been made by our prehistoric human ancestors, the Denisovans, an extinct species of humans, and just showed them to have been far more advanced than ever realized.
However, further analysis, has left them in a bit of difficulty, with their conclusions as to who the makers could have been, a hole initially thought to have been caused by erosion, is actually a purposely placed drill hole, created by the maker of the bracelet, by using what can only be assumed, was a fine jeweller’s drill.
Writing in the Novosibirsk magazine, Science First Hand, Dr Derevyanko said: " two fragments of the bracelet were found, with a width of 2.7cm and a thickness of 0.9 cm. Near one of the cracks is a drilled hole with a diameter of about 0.8 cm."

"Studying the drill hole, reluctant scientists found that the speed of rotation of the drills bit would have been rather high, fluctuations minimal, and that it was applied with an advanced implement - technology that is common for more recent times", Dr. Derevyanko told the Siberian times.
Predictably, Since this feature was discovered, the Scientific communities forth coming explanations, have fallen silent.

40,000 Year Old Bracelet Made With Futuristic Drill?
In an astonishing discovery, archaeologists unearthed a bracelet in Siberia that dates back an incredible 40,000 years, marking it as the oldest jewelry piece ever found. This remarkable artifact was discovered at Denisova Cave in the Altai region in 2008. Recent analyses confirmed the bracelet's age, demonstrating an unexpected sophistication in early human craftsmanship that challenges previous assumptions about prehistoric technology.
Initially attributed to the Denisovan species—an extinct group of early humans—the bracelet's intricate design has sparked considerable debate within the scientific community. Notably, some researchers posited that a hole in the bracelet, initially thought to have been formed naturally by erosion, was in fact a deliberately crafted feature, created using advanced drilling techniques akin to modern jewelry making.
Dr. Derevyanko, a prominent figure in this research, detailed that two fragments of the bracelet measured 2.7 cm in width and 0.9 cm in thickness. Intriguingly, a drilled hole with a diameter of 0.8 cm suggests that the drilling methods employed were exceptionally advanced for their time, indicating that Denisovans were capable of technology previously deemed exclusive to more modern eras.
Experts indicated that the high-speed rotation of the drill bit and minimal fluctuations led them to believe it was fashioned utilizing an advanced tool—an observation that left many scientists reconsidering their initial conclusions about Denisovan capabilities. Since these findings gained traction, there has been a noticeable silence from conventional scientific circles regarding alternate explanations, leaving questions about the origin of such craftsmanship unanswered.
As we ponder who truly made this ancient bracelet, it raises profound implications about our understanding of early human history and their technological sophistication. What are your thoughts on this discovery? Have you come across other artifacts that challenge our assumptions about prehistoric humans? Let's discuss!
