== Scladina cave site ==
Scladina cave is located near a road up the hill to the right of the bank Meuse, south-west of the village of Sclayn. It borders several other caves in the middle Meuse, in which other important paleoanthropological remains have been discovered, such as caves Schmerling of Spy Cave of Ramioul or Lyell Cave .
The cave site is heavy with artifacts of Neanderthal life, including stone and bone tools, and various other remains. Caves have been explored in the area since 1949. Scladina Cave was discovered in 1971 by cavers CAS (Archaeological Circle sclaynois). After initially clearing the entrance, the first excavations quickly uncovered carved tools, dating from the Middle Palaeolithic ( Mousterian) , from about 300 000 to 34 000 years ago). More vestiges of this time had been found in Belgium for nearly a century. In 1978, the University of Liège participated in excavations. Two Neanderthal occupations were identified: one dating from 130,000 years, and the other 40 000 years. The archaic modern human ( Cro-magnon ) also briefly occupied the site in the Upper Paleolithic (between 32,000 and 9,000 years ago) and used the site as a place of burial in the Neolithic (between −5300 and −2000).
Continual excavation since 1971 has allowed for a slow stream of findings, leading up to the discovery of the significant Sclayn child in 1993. The archaeological site of the Palaeolithic Sclayn cave is classified as an exceptional underground heritage site of Wallonia , as of 27 May 2009, and is open to the public.
