Prehistoric Paintings Discovered In Colombia, Called “The Sistine Chapel of the ancients'”

Daily Caller UK

An eight-mile wall of prehistoric rock art featuring animals and humans has been discovered in the Amazonian rainforest after it was created up to 12,500 years ago. 

The historical artwork, which is now being called the ‘Sistine Chapel of the ancients’, was uncovered on cliff faces last year in the Chiribiquete National Park, Colombia, by a British-Colombian team of archaeologists funded by the European Research Council. 

The date of the paintings has been based on the portrayal of extinct animals from the ice age such as the mastodon – a prehistoric relative of the elephant which hasn’t been seen in South America for at least 12,000 years.  More

  4. The first thing that I thought of while seeing this was how could this region possibly have been savanna at one time without belching smokestacks to force the change?
