Sample Book Insights:

#1 The guide turns his flashlight on the ceiling of the underground caverns of Lascaux, and the painted animals seem to emerge from the depths of the rock. The artwork is far more clear than it was to the Palaeolithic artists, since they had to work by the light of small flickering lamps.

#2 The caves were probably sanctuaries, and their iconography reflected a radically different worldview than the outside world. The cave paintings depict men confronting animals in a state of trance with upraised arms.

#3 The Palaeolithic caves may have been the scene of similar rites. The paintings include dancing men dressed as animals. The Bushmen say that their own rock paintings depict the world behind this one that we see with our eyes, which the shamans visit during their mystical flights.

#4 The caves were used for the initiation ceremonies that marked the adolescent boy’s rite of passage from childhood to maturity. The purpose of the ritual was to train the boy to kill in the sacred manner. He was introduced to the more esoteric mythology of his tribe during the initiation.
