Paleolithic Cave Art
In the absence of a written history, there are only educated, well-reasoned suppositions regarding arts meaning and function. Assembling the clues, archaeologists know the following about Old Stone Age people and their art:
1) People lived near the entrances of caves.
2) Wall murals are found in the deepest recesses within the caves.
3) The vast majority of the images are of animals.
4) Many of the images have been nicked, suggesting that spears or arrows may have been hurled at them.
5) The images seem to be superimposed one over another, suggesting that they may have been executed at different times and perhaps over long periods of time as opposed to a single decorative campaign resulting in a single unified artistic design.
6) Most of the European caves are found in southern France and north western Spain.
The most famous of the more than 130 caves found in the region of the Pyrenees are Chauvet, Lascaux and Altamira.
Recent discoveries of ever more remote caverns within Chauvet have revealed older yet very sophisticated cave paintings, thus challenging the idea that Paleolithic art skills progressed in a linear manner.
7) Prehistoric artists often incorporated natural rock formations on cave walls, sometimes incising lines.
8) Sticks of charcoal and naturally occurring minerals (such as red iron oxide) were commonly used for the drawings. Tallow was at times mixed with the minerals, making a kind of ancient oil pastel.
