Fascinating session! Thanks for sharing, and so quickly!
In light of the C's comments about Russia and Ukraine, i thought the following discovery was of note: recent testing revealed that the 30,000 year old Venus of Willendorf was made from rock found either around the Alps in Italy, or the other location proposed could be eastern Ukraine.
A few snippets from the article:
Origins of the 30,000-year-old Venus of Willendorf solved

"One of the two possible routes from the south to the north would lead around the Alps and into the Pannonian Plain and was described in simulations by other researchers a few years ago.
Whether this was possible more than 30,000 years ago is unclear due to the climate deterioration that began at that time.
..another interesting place for the origin of the rock. It is in **eastern Ukraine**, more than 1,600 kilometres as the crow flies from Willendorf.
The samples there do not fit as clearly as those from Italy, but better than all the others in the sample.
An interesting connection here: Venus figures were found in nearby southern Russia, which are somewhat younger, but look very similar to the Venus found in Austria. Genetic results also show that people in Central and Eastern Europe were connected to one another at this time."
The making of the figurine would be 45,000 years after any theorised arrival of the Kantekkians, but since, as mentioned in the article, there's a cultural and genetic connection between Italy and Ukraine, and there's evidence of other Venus statuettes in Russia, i wonder if these could be linked in some way to the original inhabitants.
The Venus may not be evidence of the original culture, whatever that may have been, because these Venuses appears much later, and apparently at a time of, or following, climate change. And i wonder whether the changing climate was an impetus for their creation, or perhaps they were made prior.
There's evidence of earlier statuettes that aren't in the Venus style in the Russian region, for example the 45,000 year old lion stauette found in the Denisova cave:

And then there's the 35,000 year old lion
statuette found in France. This might shows a shift from animal imagery to human, or maybe they were different cultures, or just represented different things.
In thinking about the portals, i wondered if there's some connection with the appearance of other races, and the other portals mentioned; perhaps it wasn't only the Kantekkians that arrived that way? That said, thus far any correlation i'm thinking of isn't exactly compelling, because there aren't enough portals for each race to have come through one individually, unless others have since closed, and whilst there may be a correlation for some races, China, for example, there's doesn't appear to be one for others, such as the Paranthas and Africans (although perhaps in the case of Africa, no portal was necessary, because they were already here?).
Well, those are just some things that came to mind.
Stellar session!
