jan 1, 35000 BC - Cave Paintings
Description:
Cave paintings were discovered that are believed to be the earliest ever, dating from 3200 BCE. There are hundreds of paintings of different types of animals, and are unusual for cave paintings in that they depict predatory animals. These were a significant development in media, in that they were one of the first attempts to convey a message, idea or story without the use of words, actions or sounds.
Cave paintings are well known today but were only preserved as an art created by the early humans. It is familiar to us since it was discussed during our history class. This was known as the early human’s way to communicate with each other. We do not use cave paintings as communication since we have already discovered different ways to interact with each other.
