A Moroccan archaeologist team excavates a human skeleton dating back 11,000 to 12,000 years in a cave in Tafoghalt, Berkane.

One of the skeletons was buried with a horn of a barbary sheep, an animal once abundant in the region during the prehistoric age.

The discovery will give experts a clearer idea of the funeral rituals practiced by the prehistoric population of the superior Paleolithic, the Iberomaurusian culture in particular.

Scientists also discovered tools made of rocks, pottery works, and the remains of ostrich eggs dating back 5,500 years in other sites.
