Europe's oldest blue pigment found in Germany
At the Final Palaeolithic site of Mühlheim-Dietesheim, Germany, archaeologists from Aarhus University found traces of a blue residue on a stone artifact dating back around 13,000 years.
Using a suite of cutting-edge scientific analyses, they confirmed the traces were from the vivid blue mineral pigment azurite, previously unseen in Europe’s Palaeolithic art.
Until now, scholars believed Palaeolithic artists predominantly used red and black pigments – practically no other colours are present in the art of this period. This was thought to be due to a lack of blue minerals or limited visual appeal.
Given the absence of blues in Palaeolithic art, this new discovery suggests that blue pigments may have been used for either body decoration or dyeing fabrics – activities that leave few archaeological traces.
