Kendrick’s Cave has the earliest signs of human occupation and Pant y Wennol Cave was probably used as an animal den from even earlier times. The bones of a variety of animals have been found in this cave – hyena, wolf, deer, pig and goat – even the ankle bone of a woolly rhinoceros.
The Ice Age art and burials found in Kendrick’s Cave in the late 1870s are now recognised as much more than local curiosities. The unique decorated horse jaw, the extraordinary notched deer bones and well preserved human remains found on the Great Orme by Thomas Kendrick are now acknowledged as being of international importance in understanding our past.
