Abstract

3D scan of a piece of red ochre. Red ochre was one of the available and used natural colors of the Stone Age. It was used in cave paintings, to color clothing and skins, as well as for burial rituals from the Middle Paleolithic to the Neolithic. Also the Venus of Willendorf was originally completely covered by red ochre. The item originated from layer 9 of the Willendorf II site in the Wachau Region in Lower Austria.
