This composition structure proved to researchers that the art “faithfully transmitted sophisticated metaphysical concepts that later informed the beliefs and symbolic expression of Mesoamerican agricultural societies,” according to the news release.

It's an art and a bison.

I’d love to see one of those proto-Texans from 6000 years ago try just one nice slice of moist smoked brisket and a spoonful of mustard potato salad.... and just see the looks on their faces.

They had it hard, they deserved it.

I watch a You Tube channel called ‘Tiny Cabin Life’ and he spends his time camping and paddling around our Great Lakes.

He finds TONS of these ‘cave writings’ on walls all over the Midwest that were obviously NOT underwater at some point. Mainly, they seem to be messages to fellow travelers about SCARY animals in the area or an upcoming water rapids, etc.

So interesting to think of all the people that came before us and left their mark. :)

It would be nice if they had more photos of the art.

Metaphysical.....

As I have stated previously, I had a double college major of Spanish and Archaeology. I eventually realized that one could not pay a mortgage, or any other bill, with archaeology.

Before I ceased pursuing the Archaeology degree, I was fortunate to participate in excavations in California, and then Central America.

In California, there were these smaller shaped rocks. Imagine a smaller wine bottle, and the top is a little thicker. The anthropologists speculated on all sorts of the possible religious and cultural significance of these artifacts. There was no written materials to explain or hint at them. Eventually, it was learned that the natives tied the rocks to their fishing nets to stabilize them in the water.

Not surprising that humans tag every flat surface available with “art”, but it must have been harder before aerosol cans were invented.

I’m jaded. That didn’t take my breath away, or make me take a deeper one. Its lame. Sand blast that rock so someone can dress it up.
