Mandrin Cave (French: "Grotte Mandrin") is a cave in France where habitation alternating between Neanderthals and Initial Upper Paleolithic Modern Humans in the cave has been documented, and the presence of modern humans has been dated to between 56,800 and 51,700 years ago, about 10,000 years before previously accepted dates for the colonization of Europe by modern humans.[1][2] Mandrin Cave is located in the municipality of Malataverne, on the left bank of the Rhône.
