The Theopetra Cave is an archaeological site in Meteora, in the central Greek region of Thessaly, Greece.
Radiocarbon evidence shows human presence at least 50,000 years ago.
Excavations began in 1987 under the direction of Ν—Kyparissi-Apostolika, which were meant to answer questions about Paleolithic Thessaly, Greece.
As a result of archaeological excavations conducted over the years, it has been revealed that the Theopetra Cave was occupied by humans as early as 130000 years ago.
In addition, evidence for human habitation in the Theopetra Cave can be traced without interruption from the Middle Palaeolithic to the end of the Neolithic period.
This is significant, as it allows archaeologists to better understand the prehistoric period in Greece.
