Confusion between two rock shelters

[edit]

This article should be renamed "Ifri n'Amr ou Moussa" instead of "Ifri n'Ammar". Ifri n'Amr ou Moussa is the cave discovered in 2005, located in the Zemmour plateau, between Rabat and Meknès, in Western Morocco, whereas Ifri n'Ammar is a totally distinct rock shelter discovered by a half Moroccan half German team in northeastern Morocco. Ifri n'Amr ou Moussa exclusively features, as far as we know, neolithic burials (some associated to Early Neolithic, some to Bell Beaker culture), whereas Ifri n'Ammar is associated with Middle Paleolithic. The genetic study only deals with the bodies found in Ifri n'Amr ou Moussa, not Ifri n'Ammar, so the article should be renamed as soon as possible to solve this misleading confusion! --Delpha (talk) 13:35, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
