Long Before the Written Word, There was Art and it was Fantastic.
史载前（Prehistoric）的艺术是以洞穴画的形式出现，最早的洞穴画是在法国的一个叫Ardeche Gorges的地方发现的，并以发现者（Chauvet）的名字命名，是目前所发现的最早的艺术形式，至少有三万一千年的历史。
Numerous finger tracings were made on the soft, putty-like, outer layer of the cave wall. The principal image is a horse walking to the left. The traces on the body may represent its shedding coat in spring. The parallel lines on the abdomen could be a symbolic representation of bear scratches. Upon awakening from their winter hibernation, bears make such marks while standing on their hind legs in front of the wall (total L. of the panel: approx. 6 m).
第一个被发现的绘画洞穴是在西班牙的Altamira（并以此命名），作于公元前一万八千年。
The most famous Altamira paintings are on the plafond - a low ceiling in one of the cave "vestibules" to the left from the entrance. The total area of the ceiling is about 100 sq. ms. Here the artist had skillfully combined pigment painting with the ceiling relief. The majority of more than 20 animal figures, (mainly bisons, though there are also a horse, a boar and a deer) is depicted on the natural bosses of the ceiling and so there comes out an impressive picture of bas-relief, embossed figures. When the palaeolithic age of the Altamira paintings had been generally accepted discussions of other problems started. In particular, was the Altamira ceiling painting the result of a single action ( in the terms of life of one man) and conception or was it a long accumulation of different depictions? Some investigators were sure that the Altamira ceiling is a sound compositional work. Though nobody said it directly but it was somehow implied that it was the work of one artist. It concerns not only the Altamira ceiling. The painting of the Niaux "Salon Noire" was also considered to be the work of one artist and only the ibex figure was admitted to be corrected later. Other specialists, A.P.Okladnikov for example, considered the Altamira ceiling to be the result of successive addition of depictions, originally not connected. The last results of the radiocarbon dating of some ceiling paintings showed that 200 - 500 years separate them.
