World’s oldest ritual discovered. Worshipped the python 70,000 years ago - Apollon

A new archaeological find in Botswana shows that our ancestors in Africa engaged in ritual practice 70,000 years ago — 30,000 years earlier than the oldest finds in Europe. This sensational discovery strengthens Africa’s position as the cradle of modern man.

That doesn't surprise me at all. Great article though. I'm always interested in hearing about how ancient hunter-gatherers lived.
