Germany was covered by glaciers 4,50,000 years ago: Study
Dating river beds in central Germany, scientists have discovered a boulder that was transported from Scandinavia by glaciers 4,50,000 years ago. The researchers from Max Planck Society also recovered a 4,00,000-year-old stone tool, which provides evidence for the first ancestral human occupation in the area, while other Stone Age artefacts from the deposits were associated with Neanderthals.
