On Christmas Eve in 1994, humans entered a cave in the mountains of southeastern France forwhat was probably the first time in 20,000 years. The vivid images of more than 300 animalsthat Jean-Marie Chauvet and his assistants found on the cave walls were like none that they hadseen before. Unusual in the Grotte Chauvet, as the cave is now called in honor of its discoverer,are paintings of many flat sheeting animals. Other known caves from the same geographicalarea and time period contain only paintings of plantites. The paintings in this cave refute theold theory that Cro-Magnoon people painted animals that they hunted and then ate. Now manyspecialists believe that cave paintings were not part of a ritual to bring good luck to hunters.They point out that while deer made up a major part of their diet, therere no drawings of deer.They believe that the animals painted were those central to the symbolic and spiritual life ofthe times; animals that represented something deep and spiritual to the people. Scientists arehopeful that Groo Chavie will yield new information about the art and lifestyle of Cro-Magnoonpeople. They readily admit, however, that little is understood yet as to the reasons why ice ageartists created their interesting and detailed paintings. Scientists also wonder why somepaintings were done in areas that are so difficult to get to, in caves, for example, that are 2,400feet underground, and accessible only by crawling through narrow passageways.
