45,000 years ago ice sheets covered the polar regions and mountain tops of the world. Human population during this glacial period has been calculated to have been in the tens or thousands, if not even less. According to pre-historians, as the Ice Cap retreated, Homo Sapiens gained the upper hand on the Neanderthals and dominated the good hunting grounds and lands with shelter.
Several years ago researchers discovered a cavern in Sulawesi covered with ancient paintings considered to the dawn of art.
There are only animals in the wall tableaus.
Big animals.
Abstract like Paul Klee.
No humans.
Only handprints.
I personally think of these caves more as religious museums than domiciles.
Otherwise there would be pornography deeper in the earth, because that's just the way men are, unless all these early cultures were dominated by women.
Eve and Adam.
I know who came first no matter what the Bible says.
