A cro-magnon is a prehistoric human believed
to be ancestral to Europeans, the first
skeletons of which were found in 1868 in the
Cro-Magnon cave near Les Eyzies, in the
Dordogne region of France. They are thought
to have superseded the NEANDERTHAL people of
the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and Asia
about 40,000 years ago.
