Plus, "Gibraltar may have been the last refuge of the Neanderthals, according to the results of a six-year archaeological dig.

The story about the Stone Age Female statue will not load. The first portion of story will, but as you attempt to continue the page can't be displayed. Thought you should know.

In response to the "scanning" of Ancient ruins - I feel that using AutoCAD is a very unique way of saving the ancient ruins for future generations. Creating a 3D model not only saves the monument, but also allows archeologists to gain a better understanding of ancient civilizations. However, I do believe that we should be trying to preserve what is left of the ruins. These monuments are constant reminders of the great civilizations of old. If they are only on a computer program, the world will have much less appreciation for these monuments and their signifigance.
