There were three theories that attempted to explain why paleolithic humans might have painted animals on the walls of the caves.
Theory 1. Our ancestors just did it because were bored and wanted to decorate the cave., and they chose animals because animals were important to their existence.
Theory 2. Ceremonies were conducted in these caves and that the artwork was the results of these ceremonies. The ceremonies could have been performed to help with the hunts, the reason being that if the artist could capture the image of the animal, the animal could be captured in the hunt.
Theory 3. Prehistoric humans’ desire to document their history.
Now, having these theories in mind, which theory of cave art do you find the most legitimate? Why? Discuss your answer in 5 – 8 sentences only.
