Cave Art


Some people study art from the ice age. T ey want to know about the images of people and animals. I want to know about the symbols.


Red dots are not the only symbols I have found in ancient caves. I’ve seen lines and circles. Spirals and triangles, too. I’ve seen symbols that look like feathers or trees. I’ve seen half circles and squares.


I took notes. I made a database. T ere’s data from more than 350 caves and other sites.


We found two red dots.


Hidden deep inside many ice age caves, we found many symbols.
