8,000-year-old skull with preserved brain

[Still Waters]

Archaeologists in Norway made an extremely rare discovery when they found an ancient skull believed to date back 8,000 years at a dig site in Stokke, southwest of Oslo. According to a news report in The Local, the skull was found to contain a grey, clay-like substance inside it, which is thought to be the preserved remains of the individual's brain. If analyses confirm this to be the case, it will constitute one of the oldest brains ever found.
