That’s some slow drying paint they were using.

Well, it’s not like they had a publication deadline, or anything.

but a pioneering technique is allowing researchers to date cave art accurately for the first time

I think the new technique has flaws. Do they suppose each generation told the next to add one more stroke to the painting?

This doesn’t have the smell of truth about it. Uranium series dating usually applies to times much further back than European cave dwellers. I’d like to see something more solid on the dating techniques they used.

“Prehistoric cave paintings took up to 20,000 years to complete”

This is just a story to make Illinois road construction schedules palatable.

So, what's the point.....Oh, yeh...GRANT MONEY....

How this gig works...

I present an hypothesis...and get a grant...a nice grant that'll fund me for a couple of years.

Then my buddy proposes a different hypothosis...and he gets a grant...a nice grant.

Me and my buddy meet every morning for coffee. We toast to: It's a great life because no one really, really gives a damn about the cave paintings...They're simply cooool.

You put down your brush in a dark cave and you can’t find it again.

And if we believe in evolution, and of course we all do, the conclusion to draw is that the paintings were started by naked apes and completed by a man in a Georgio Armani suit.

Makes more sense that something is incorrect in the dating process.

Thanks for the archaeology posts!

But...

I'm still waiting for the discovery of a cave where fishermen immortalized 20,000 years of "It was T - H - I - S big!!!" stories... '-)

Phtttt! I can decipher the paintings:

“Save money on your bison insurance by switching to Geico. It’s so easy, a cave man can do it.”

And calcium carbonate deposition rate is known for the past 20,000 years?
