  • Rediscovering Ancient Greek Music: A performance reconstructs the past
The video about the bone flute was extracted from Werner Herzog's marvelous 2010 film  Cave of Forgotten Dreams
The subject of the film is Chauvet-Pont-d'Arc Cave in southeastern France.  This cave is home to some of the best preserved cave paintings of ancient times.

The bone flute is the origin of the modern tin whistle.
