Caves : An Underground Hollow With Access From The Ground Surface Or Fromthe Sea

The last article talks about the 59th Unnamed Cave, in Florida. This cave is located in the eastern part of the Florida Panhandle. From the dates of the artifacts and the dates of the glyph, the site was occupied in the Late Woodland period. The cave was discover in 2007 when a group of cave explorer saw fine engravings on the wall. This site was the first cave art site that was found in Florida and it is the second rock art site that was found in the states. Rock art is very rare in Florida, but now with the site found there is a wider perspective on the importance of rock art. The site did not only include the petroglyph drawing of the past, but it included some artifacts that was use to help date the time that the cave was occupied.

In the movie Cave of the Forgotten Dreams, director Werner Herzog and a very small crew are given the opportunity to go to France and see Chauvet Cave. While watching the start of this movie, I was very surprised to see that they were limited with how many people they could bring into the cave. I have gone to a cave in South Dakota and they took hundreds of people in it at a time. So, seeing that I think they only had like five crew members was very shocking. I was surprised though how many experts they had working on mapping the map and doing other tests on the cave. I thought maybe, there would only be like two experts in at a time and not five or six. I also didn’t know there was that many different experts that all can work on the same thing at the same time. Also, while watching I was surprised to see the equipment that they had to use.I never really thought about how the lights can affect the cave walls and the paintings.I was impressed that they filmed the movie in the cave with a non professional movie camera, I did not know that there were other cameras that could work that well in the dark of a cave.

Prehistoric cave art is important because it can serve as an art journal. The artwork of prehistoric people allow us to look into how they interact with their environment. Not only the artwork, but the tools they use and the remains near the sites can provide us with information about the artists' lives. The Magura Cave, Chauvet Cave, and Altamira Cave are a few caves that contain prehistoric artwork.

In 1991 Henri Cosquer found a cave. It was 120 feet beneath the ocean. The cave was very old. It was a prehistoric cave.

Neanderthals were originally thought to have a lower intellect than what we know now. This evidence goes to further prove that point, by showing that they understood how to break open mussels’ shells, and a somewhat understanding of seals mating season. The age of the caves is about 41,800 years old, so this just a bit before Neanderthals went extinct. The most recent evidence showing humans using marine life besides this was about 125,000 years ago, so that is also interesting.

​The Cave of Forgotten Dreams is a documentary about the Chauvet Cave located in southern France. The cave contains some of the earliest and oldest images painted by humans, discovered till date. The three discoverers found the caves by searching from drafts emanating from the ground that would ensure the presence of caves. They sensed a draft in someplace and began to push away small rocks to see a narrow shaft which they cut through, descended into the ground and then found themselves in a cave that was remarkably beautiful and astounding for them. Earlier not much was known about paintings inside caves which were usually done by the people living inside them depicting their lives or surroundings. Excavations into such caves taught researchers

The Cave: The cave represents people and their misinterpreted and observant perception of truth and knowledge, based only on what is seen and heard. My outlook on this stemmed from the impression of its confinement and darkness. Those shielded from the light of the truth.

The U.S has many caves each with different cavernous terrain. These underground areas hold plenty of beautiful natural wonders from oddly interesting wildlife to huge crystal formations. The exploration of caves presents cavers with the opportunity to see new species. The amount of caves and the variety of them allows for a new experience and adventure every time. Some caves can be tight and cramped spaces or huge underground areas that are large enough to have water pools, even mini rivers and waterfalls. The mysteries of what a cave can hold is the most appealing part to

      The last flashlight dimmed to nothing, we were all alone with a thousand feet of rock above us. Not a face, wall, or a glint from a crown could be seen. Not a sound was heard, we were trapped with no form of communication to base. The light sound of feet shuffling could hardly be heard until it quieted to nothing. The tension grew between my fellow cave explorers and I, it grew so thick you could most likely cut it with a knife and use it for rations. The sound of a slight rumbling alerted my ears and senses.         Building mazes meant I be caves in the basement with blankets and sheets was the early cave exploring for me and my cousins. When I was about five, my

Many people dream of discovering new sights and mapping new territories. Long gone are the days of ships sailing around the world discovering new lands. So, does that mean there is nothing uncharted to explore on earth? Not at all. There may be new discoveries right under your feet. There is a vast system of caves on this planet, and many of them remain unobserved by human eyes. To date, the largest known cave, in terms of depth, is the Krubera cave.

The distinctive symbols that humans made long ago in those European caves showed the creativity that sparked in those ancient

The discovery included a tremendous number of objects, from all periods of antiquity. Explicitly, such things as a rare Neolithic male figurine, Mycenaean shards, bone flutes, iron and bronze rings, miniature bronze statutes, fifty thousand terracotta figurines from the classical period and twenty-four thousand “knucklebones” (used for astrology, or prophecy). Generally, the ruins that survive today date from the extremely intense period of activity at the site during the sixth century B.C. Apparently due to the magnitude of the gloomy cave, intense lighting becomes

The first evidence of cave art appeared in Western Europe (Berenguer 67). Early cave paintings were characteristic of Western art. They were supported by an acute vision,

The widely opened front door, that just as matriarchal arms open security, wellness, and love to your new creation, welcomes me to this concrete shaped structure, surrounded by enormous Araucaria trees with colorful crochet rounding their massive trunk. As I walk in, the green walls rebirth my inherited Amazon flora, creating a fluidity that protects and guide me inside. Running barefoot, I can feel the crocodile leather-like floor, where my feet can intertwine with the social roots sustaining this place. A delightful, sweet taste of opportunities fills my mouth in this relaxing sphere, where I am only able to concentrate on the heavenly sounds of birds surrounding me. Inhaling the present atmosphere, I am inundated with the marvelous smell of newly cooked Brazilian nuts bread, and above my head, flying gradient whales hang in a mystified mobile structure, externalising the simple complexity this sphere
