Early modern human occupations of these painted caves range in date from about 15\,000 years ago to as much as 30\,000 years ago and beyond\, an astounding depth of time. \nOver the course of four summers excavating a Neanderthal era archaeological site elsewhere in southwest France\, Dr. Steve had the opportunity to visit several of these remarkable caves personally\, including going inside two of them. \nThis lecture takes us on a journey to three of these remarkable sites: Font de Gaume\, Lascaux\, and Chauvet. The images you will see we can relate to. However\, can we relate to why these images existed at such a distant time in our human cultural history? \nClick here to register!
