Pau: Pierolapithecus catalaunicus

This workshop focuses on the figure of Pau, the Pierolapithecus catalaunicus specimen found in the area. The activity breaks down the biological and evolutionary traits of this primate, a key figure for understanding the origin and diversification of the great ape family during the Miocene. The session takes place at the Centre de Restauració i Interpretació Paleontològica, centering on the scientific relevance of local sites and contextualizing the discovery alongside Guido Dettoni's sculpture of the hominoid.
