INRAP is the short form name of an impressive organisation called the National Institute of Preventive Archaeological Research. Although their origins are in France, they operate worldwide but it is a home grown find which is currently of high interest.
     Since April 2018 they have been excavating three prehistoric sites, ranging from Final Palaeolithic to Mesolithic, just outside the commune of Angouleme in the Charente department of France.
     A recent find at this site was that of an engraved piece of stone where the shape of a headless horse is clearly visible. The fragment is decorated on both sides and it is thought to be a piece of Azilian art dating to approximately 12,000 BCE, although further detailed investigations are being carried out.
     The Azilian Culture stretches back as far as the Early Mesolithic period and covered areas of Northern Spain and Southern France. Other artefacts have been discovered in the same area including fireplaces, heated pebbles, a flint post and animal bones, suggesting a hunting site.
