Neanderthals used necklaces and bracelets for ornamental purposes long before modern Homo sapiens did, and tens of thousands of years before modern Homo sapiens reached the European continent. The discovery was made in 2015 in Krapina, Croatia, by archaeologists Davorka Radovčić, Ankica Oros Sršen, Jakov Radovčić, and David W. Frayer.
