The Culture of Art
Functions of Early Art: 1: The artist was most likely trying to say they took the time and patience to draw out these beasts; they wanted them to be remembered. Kind of like how nowadays we put our children's report cards or their drawings up there too. 2: I believe the artists drew animals, not people because humans interacted with humans. They were understood and worked together in unison. Animals were beasts that took a lot of force or effort to take down, and once they did, I am sure it was something special for them and special enough to put on the walls of their cave homes. 3: Paleolithic people are telling stories here on the walls. And even fantasy with the "Man bird" drawings. It tells us that they interacted with many animals and even saw animals fighting or killing other animals. 4 : oh my gosh, I was thinking about the whole duration of this interactive map. The maze and movements of these cave corridors, steeps, or steps to get higher or lower
