Espace Pr\u00e9histoire<\/a> offers you all the information you need to understand the saga of prehistoric discoveries in the Charente: the main sites uncovered, the civilisations of Homo erectus, Neanderthals and then Cro-Magnon men, as well as the specialists. Reproductions of important archaeological pieces complete the exhibition, such as the “baton of command” dating from the Magdalenian period found at Montgaudier in 1885 or the human skull from Font\u00e9chevade.<\/p>\nThe association Pr\u00e9histoire en Tardoire<\/strong> runs a rich programme of events every year, accessible to all. Young and old alike can find out more about their origins and learn the techniques and tricks of prehistoric man.
\n– Children’s workshops<\/strong>: handling objects, painting on a wall, doing an archaeological dig, creating a prehistoric necklace, making a fire with flint and straw…
\n– In situ visits<\/strong>: guided tours of the Montgaudier and La Chaise sites
\n– Family workshops<\/strong>: discovery of a site and a workshop to share with the family
\n– But also escape games, conferences…
\nAnd in August, the association organises the Prehistory Festival<\/strong> with free workshops for all in and around the prehistoric space. So “do some prehistory!\u201d<\/p>\n![\"Exposition](\"https:\/\/tourisme.rochefoucauld-perigord.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/03\/DSCF1147A_edited-1024x768.jpg\")
