 Cave paintings

What are cave paintings? Cave paintings are artistic representations made on the walls of caves and rock shelters by prehistoric human groups. Dating back thousands of years, these works often include figures of animals, humans, and abstract symbols. They are found in various parts of the world and are considered one of the earliest forms of artistic expression. These paintings offer valuable information about the life, culture, and beliefs of ancient societies, as well as their environment and hunting techniques. Most cave paintings were created with natural pigments, such as iron oxides and charcoal, and their study helps archaeologists understand the evolution of humans and their interactions with the environment.


How can cave paintings connect with me?
I think they can connect with me in the aspects of seeing through drawings how they thought or felt at that time, also maybe they can connect with me in the way they planned to hunt and their connection with nature, with this I mean that now with the ability to communicate or with a language already expressed I can make known how it is that I truly feel and share ideas that favor my society. At the same time these works connect with me, I value the talent they had to leave murals of history uniting the art of painting and capturing it in stones because this is how we can now learn a little about history or try to interpret the drawings they captured, to motivate me to learn more about our roots and the evolution of humanity.



What do I think about cave paintings? Cave paintings are fascinating and very significant. They represent one of the earliest forms of artistic expression and offer us a window into the lives and thoughts of our ancestors. Each stroke and colour tells a story about their environment, beliefs and customs. Furthermore, their ability to endure over thousands of years highlights the importance of art as a means of human communication and connection. Studying them not only helps us understand our history, but also invites us to reflect on our own relationship with creativity and nature.

The Hyperion Tree Hyperion, the world's largest tree, stands at 115.85 metres tall, in Redwood National Park in the state of California (United States), about 500 kilometres north of San Francisco. It was discovered in 2006 by two hikers, Chris Atinks and Michael Taylor. After its discovery, and after its height was verified, it surpassed the record set to date by the giant Stratosphere, which is also located in the same Californian National Park and is 112.83 metres tall. With a trunk that reaches five metres in diameter, it owes its name to the Greek mythological god that gives it its name. Hyperion means "he who looks down from above", and it is the tallest living being on the planet. Its technical name is 'sequoia sempervirens', given that it is a red sequoia that is about 600 years old, and could be up to 3,400 years old. Coast redwoods are typical of the state of California, and are evergreen trees with more than 2 million leaves. Along with Hyperion, there ...
