@futurebird @ptmesis How did they learn how to portray the animals so accurately? They must have been practicing elsewhere in a medium or location that has been lost to us. So maybe they drew people there, and there was something special about the location of the extant paintings which meant they didn't draw people there? I've now got the image of prehistoric children drawing stick figures in the mud and telling the nearest grown-up who each of the figures is.
