AWARENESS IGNITES ACTION. âAs an educator in the field of microfinance, it is rare to find those opportunities that can bring your students closer to the action before they join the professional world. âI felt that my Human Connections internship this summer was designed specially for me. This experience has transformed me as a person.
Karst Cave, China. Photograph by Raymond Gehman. Looking like the set of a science fiction movie, China's Reed Flute Cave is bathed in purple-blue light. Created by an underground river more than a half million years ago, this highly accessible karst formation is one of the region's most popular tourist attractions.
In 2004 archeologists from TÃ¼bingen University also discovered an ancient flute in a cave located in Germany. This flute was 18.7 cm (7 3/8 in.) long and had three finger holes. It was carved from a mammoth's tusk by European Ice Age dwellers. This flute has been dated to at least 30,000 years old.
