TUBINGEN, GERMANY—Live Science reports that Ice Age artwork has been found in eastern France’s Grottes d’Agneux under graffiti dating from the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries. Harald Floss of the University of Tubingen and his colleagues used scanning technology to look for ancient drawings under the later names, dates, and pictures, and then processed the data with special software in order to reveal the images of deer and horses. Radiocarbon dating of samples of the art and charcoal in the cave indicates the paintings are 12,000 years old. Floss said the paintings are the first Paleolithic art to have been found in the region
 
12000 BP is quite late
this kind of art is mostly dated to the Aurignacians, Gravettians or Magdalenians
it looks like the Villabruna cluster didn't make such kind of art
 
^^What utter nonsense.

This is how six year olds draw:

As usual, you are a master of (not) getting the point.

So I translate for specials: it is a dauber, not an art. Calling this
an art is a nonsense. They did not have "wonderful artistic ability".
Just someone carved something when was drunk or bored.

p.s. childhood does not end with 6th year of age.

It's Thanksgiving, so I'm in a good mood. Otherwise, you'd get another infraction.

I guess I have to rely on other posters to tell me if you step out of line. You're definitely going on ignore: there's a limit to how much ignorant nonsense I can read.
