"Mammoth Bones Unearthed in Austrian Wine Cellar"

Hundreds of mammoth bones, estimated to be 30,000 to 40,000 years old, were discovered in an Austrian wine cellar during renovations. The find, described as an "archaeological sensation," is the most significant of its kind in over a century. Researchers from the Austrian Academy of Sciences are excavating the site, which has yielded at least 300 bones from three mammoths. The discovery offers a unique opportunity for modern research and raises questions about Stone Age hunting practices. The bones will be restored at the Natural History Museum Vienna.
