An amazing UNESCO cover from Gibraltar, depicting a complete set issued in 2016 celebrating the Gorham's Cave Complex.
The step limestone cliffs on the eastern side of Gibraltar contain four caves with archaelogical deposits that provide evidence of Neanderthal occupation over a span of more than 100.000 years. Scientific research on these sites has already contributed to debates about Neanderthal and human evolution.
The Gorham's Cave Complex is recognized as a UNESCO world heritage site since 2016.
