Kents Cavern, TORQUAY. A piece of jawbone excavated from Kents Cavern prehistoric cave in England is the earliest evidence for modern humans in north-west Europe, according to an international science team. New dating of the bone, which shows that it is between 44,000 and 41,000 years old, is expected to help scientists pin down how quickly modern humans spread across Europe during the last Ice Age.
