Center of the Man of Spy

Striking face-to-face with Spyrou, the Man of Spy

Since 2011, a space dedicated to the Man of Spy is open in Onoz, not far from the Cave of Spy.

His career draws the portrait of the Neanderthal man, our distant cousin formerly portrayed as a bestial and violent being, now rehabilitated. Thanks to finely chosen pieces, the emotion is very much direct. In high point: the striking face-to-face with Spyrou, the Man of Spy reconstituted hyper-realistically.

From room to room, it is also the evolution of a discipline that can be guessed, from its groping beginnings (19th century) to the extreme minutia of current methods of analysis.
