One really must hand it to them for knowing where to place their mark.

Are the handprints a starmap of Orion?

Only 37,000 years ago. I saw that Werner Herzog movie "cave of forgotten dreams" about 5 years ago and in 3D, it was a very limited release and it's about the caves in southern France with the same thing, hand prints and drawings on the walls from that same time frame, 30k years ago, it was mind blowing. What I found fascinating was not only how well they drew the physical characteristics of the animals, but how they drew them so that they appeared to be in motion. I mean think about it, I couldn't draw a horse or lion from memory like that.

Amazing. They had spray cans of paint 37K years ago. There really ISN’T anything new under the sun.

“This way to the egress.”

“Easy meal here.”

“Gents.”
