Scientists believe the figure is a woman with spread legs.

And how do they come to that conclusion? The marks could just as easily be a critter of some sort (it looks generally frog-like to me), or it could be some sort of tally system.

In her Plato Prehistorian: 10,000 to 5000 B.C. Myth, Religion, Archaeology, Mary Settegast reproduces a table which shows four runic character sets; a is Upper Paleolithic (found among the cave paintings), b is Indus Valley script, c is Greek (western branch), and d is the Scandinavian runic alphabet.
