But, well before the Middle Ages, prehistoric man was present in the Pyrenees, we find traces of it in the caves of Tarascon and Tautavel that one can visit, where the man of Tautavel, 450.000 years old, was discovered. The Aude valley also has a deposit of paleontological remains where fragments of dinosaurs and other fossils are continuously discovered. The results of these excavations are displayed at the fascinating dinosaur museum of Espéraza www.dinosauria.org where almost entire skeletons have been reconstructed by a team of experts. During the tourist season, the museum offers children workshops introducing them to excavations and the search for dinosaurs.
