Reminds me of that bull in Picasso’s Guernica.

I wonder if John Boner lent his expertise in caves to this project.

Yes a period of approximately 2-3000 years each time. Thousands of years apart. Then aomething happened that covered the cave...something catastrophic perhaps. Perhaps man rises and falls over and over again in this planet. It’s a pet theory of mine based on the story “Nightfall” by Isaac Asimov.
