The figure illustrates two reindeer that appear to be swimming and was found in Montastruc in central-southern France. When it was initially exhibited in Paris in 1867, the elaborate carving demonstrated that humans subsisted in conjunction with Ice Age animals and had inventive minds, the same as present humans (The British Museum, http://www.britishmuseum.org/whats_on/all_current_exhibitions/swimming_reindeer.aspx)
The figure is not a practical piece for normal
