David playing archeologist in a Neanderthal cave in Roc de Marsal (near
Carsac, France) in August 2005. And yes, it was as cool as it sounds!
David's biggest find... A 70,000 year old stone tool that had been used
as a scraper, discarded and then used again to make spear points thousands of years later.
Nearby are bits of reindeer bone that he also uncovered..
David tries to make his own stone tools. Many hours and a few
scars later, he still couldn't beat the cavemen at their own game.
