The trip is such that some archeologists think that it had a ritual nature, with people transcending into a new state as they descended into the final room.

Then again, it could have been nothing more than a prehistoric fun house.

I hate pretentious videos and video makers. Would be nice without the stupid audio.

Fascinating cave though.

So let me get this straight.....

A cave exists and sits in a void for 24,000 thousand years, then God creates the universe around it 6,000 years ago....

So this cave predates the universe? Yeah, that is very scientific....

Man is man, no matter from what age. He craves to participate in the God-act of creating and controlling his environment through art. It is a part of his soul yesterday, as today and it is what sets him apart from the beasts.

Thanks for posting it; and for the ping. It was difficult, but managed to look at many of the paintings full screen and manually advancing the frames. They are incredible.

I’d settle for a 2-D version, as I have an uncorrectable vision problem that makes a 3-D movie somewhat moot for me.

Also, the nearest 3-D screens are 65 miles each way.
