Cave paintings exist all over the world. Some were painted as long as 40000 years ago. Many show dangerous animals and some have flutings(lines drawn with human fingers). Caves often have low ceilings, so the artists had to crawl through long dark tunnels on their stomachs. With no safety equipment, it was dangerous. Artists shone simple lamps on the walls. Who were these brave people? Between 2000 and 2011, scientists analyzed hundreds of cave paintings in Rouffignac Cave, France. They discovered that many of the flutings were done by children! The flutings, which were about 13000 years old, are sometimes two meters high,. Did the children's parents lift them up? Why did they draw flutings on the walls?
