BERLIN – A bird-bone flute unearthed in a German cave was carved some 35,000 years ago and is the oldest handcrafted musical instrument yet discovered, archaeologists say, offering the latest evidence that early modern humans in Europe had established a complex and creative culture.
Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.
This portion of a flute was found in a cave in Slovenia. It is around 43,000 yrs. old. Since there is no context in which it could have been made by so-called "moderns". the Club states that it is not a flute at all. Experts from outside the field of archaeology maintain that it's a flute. It's a flute.
The oldest musical instrument was probably a drum, but we may never see any remains of that.

Not necessarily disagreeing but it depends how you define musical instrument-a stone gong is probably the oldest and I've read reports of some in (southern) Africa.

Yeah, iirc the explanation was a real stretch.
