the trouble with the neanderthal theory is that you see a lot of this rock art in north africa where modern humans hung out for many thousands of years before crossing over into europe.

She wonders why Neanderthals waited until about the time humans arrived to get the itch to paint.

If the DNA evidence is correct and they did interbreed, then why isn't it conceivable that the painting was learned behavior from 'modern' humans?

I think there is a mystery being missed in this story..

Where did the ‘paint’ come from?

Being Neanderthals, how is it they ‘discovered’ how to make and use paint (or plant dye)?

Also, those are some really small fingers for a Neanderthal.

Walking around the Smithsonian Museum of Modern Art I saw many pieces which I assumed had been made by lemurs. Or perhaps cows who had sat in some semi-gloss latex.

"OK, Neanderthals had been there for 300,000 years, and they're not doing this," Shipman says. "If they are not doing it before, why would they suddenly start doing it at that point?"

For thousands of years, humans didn't do a lot of things, then suddenly we started doing them. Every innovation has its time and its reasons.

Remember when the young monkeys started washing their food in water to remove the grit? Why didn't the older ones figure that out? And why did they not join in on the discovery right away?

There are dozens of examples of animals not doing something for thousands of years and then one day...
