Cave painting. Model of a Cro-Magnon man,a type of early modern human (Homo sapiens sapiens),doing a cave painting. It is thought that animals were painted onto the walls of the caves in which Cro-Magnons lived to give their hunters power over animals,ensuring a successful hunt. Cave paintings first appeared in Europe around 35,000 years ago. Cro-Magnons lived in Europe,northern Africa and southern Asia from 50,000 years ago. Cro-Magnons are so-called due to discoveries made in a rock shelter of that name in France. This model,from a Nordstar exhibition,was photograph- ed at the Naturkundemuseum in Stuttgart,Germany | |
