Archaeologists discover 180,000-year-old tooth in Iranian cave

Further research may reveal an even older time frame for the site

A 180,000-year-old baby tooth has been found in the Qaleh-Kord Cave in Iran during archaeological excavations. This is the second discovery of a baby tooth in the cave; previously, a Neanderthal baby tooth was found that was about 175,000 years old. This is reported by Tehran Times, a partner of TV BRICS.

The cave itself is about 455,000 years old, making it a very valuable historical site.

It is unclear whether the tooth found belonged to a Neanderthal or a Homo sapiens child. If it is confirmed to be a Neanderthal tooth, it will be the fifth such find on the Iranian Plateau. If the tooth turns out to be a Homo sapiens remains, it will be a very rare find, as no Homo sapiens remains of this age have been found in the region before.

Traces of various animals, including hyenas, boars, and bears, have also been found during the excavations.

Archaeologists hope that excavations at the Qaleh-Kord Cave will continue to yield more information about the ancient inhabitants of the region.

"This roadmap sets the framework for our joint efforts. Indonesia and Belarus have great potential for expanding cooperation in various fields.

Liao Fan

Director of the Institute of World Economics and Politics at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS)

"We also encourage countries of the Global South to work together and contribute to the global economy. We also call on developed countries to set aside issues such as national security and strategic competition when we are discussing real global challenges – pressing issues such as public health or poverty reduction – so that development resources can be channelled truly effectively to those countries that need them. [...] Major powers and large countries must bear greater responsibility for the well-being of people around the world. This is the responsibility of the major powers"

Anutin Charnvirakul

"Russia has been a trusted friend of Thailand for over a century. […] Next year, we will mark the 130th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our countries.
