The reconstructed sound can be listened to in sound file at end of article. Go listen. This is an awesome thing.


The love song of an extinct katydid that lived 165 million years ago has been brought back to life, according to a study in the latest issue of PNAS. The song is thought to be the most ancient known music documented to date.
