"U-Series Dating of Paleolithic Art in 11 Caves in Spain". Science. 336 (6087): 1409–1413. Bibcode:2012Sci...336.1409P. doi:10.1126/science.1219957. PMID22700921. S2CID7807664..
"We present uranium-series disequilibrium dates of calcite deposits
overlying or underlying art found in 11 caves, including the United Nations Educational, Scientific,
and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage sites of Altamira, El Castillo, and Tito Bustillo,
Spain. The results demonstrate that the tradition of decorating caves extends back at least
to the Early Aurignacian period, with minimum ages of 40.8 thousand years for a red disk,
37.3 thousand years for a hand stencil, and 35.6 thousand years for a claviform-like symbol.
These minimum ages reveal either that cave art was a part of the cultural repertoire of the first
anatomically modern humans in Europe or that perhaps Neanderthals also engaged in painting caves."
The El Castillo red stippled disk (sample O-83) was dated to 41.40±0.57 ka (95% CI, corrected).
Table 1: Ages are corrected for detritus by using an assumed 232Th/238U activity of 1.250±0.625 and 230Th/238U and 234U/238U at equilibrium.
