When you go outside and everything is ice, you don't have much to do except put grafitti on the wall of your local cave.

And is anyone else have the term "Piltdown Man" running through their heads?

Discoveries last year of images of animals, dancing girls and female sexual parts

The world's first porn site. Lemme guess - the artist wore a bathrobe all the time.

How tall is the cave ceiling? Were these giants carving on the roof, or were the carvings on the wall? Did they use scaffolding?

"Experts hail elaborately carved cave ceiling. With its drooping bill and beady eye, the ancient bird looks like a cross between a podgy curlew and a dodo. The strikingly realistic image was etched into the soft limestone roof a Nottinghamshire cave by a paleolithic artist around 13,000 years ago.

"We thought that last year we had a big discovery with 12 figures," Sergio Ripoll, a Spanish expert on cave art. "Now we have found 96 figures - it is a very, very great discovery.

"We think this is the most elaborately carved cave ceiling in the world. This is one of the biggest discoveries I have ever made and I think we will have many more surprises in the next months," Dr Ripoll said. "

PING

This is a "Gods, Graves, Glyphs" -- Archeology/Anthropology/Ancient Cultures/Artifacts/Antiquities, etc. PING list.

Please FREEPMAIL me, if you want on or off this list.

I just got the list from farmfriend, so those of you who haven’t been pinged lately, please check the link above, where you can find the links to the more recent articles.

LOOKING FOR volunteer to take the ping list and the ping task over. I took it temporarily, to continue it, but I am becoming very busy and there may be days when I am not available. Please FReepmail me, if you would be interested. On the average it’s only a ping a day or so. (Some days more, then for a few days there may be nothing). In the meantime I’ll do it, but you may get some pings a little late.

"The experts have their disagreements: Dr Pettitt believes the total number of images is less than the number suggested by Dr Ripoll and others and that some 'are in the eye of the beholder'. He is also positive that one image described as bird shows instead the buttocks and legs of a fat woman. "

When did science change from a thing where people were just happy to figure things out into something where people were not happy unless they made fancy eye-catching headlines?

When exactly?

Interesting. Like a good modern artist, the ice-age guy looked at the cave ceiling and then chipped away everything that didn’t look like a bison or deer or bird.
