On the other hand, the reality of the religion does not matter to him unless someone conducts any investigation to get to the religious truth. In the essay ‘Homo religiosus,’ Karen Armstrong
The divide between the Paleolithic period and the Neolithic period could not be greater. However, both time periods rely on each-others advancements for the ultimate development of art, and architecture. The Paleolithic time period is divided into three sections, lower, middle and upper.

The origin of modern human behavior is a subject in anthropology that accumulates much debate. Cognition is the dominant factor in such behavior, therefore raises the question, “when did this separation of intelligent or modern thought from the primitive come to daily behavior for our genus?” There are two such answers that hold experts in the field captive in debate: the rapid “imagination revolution” in the European-centrailized Upper Paleolithic, and the steadiness of cognitive growth provided
show that artistic expression stretches back more than 30,000 years (Balter, 2009, p. xx) Carbon isotope analysis of charcoal used in pictures of horses at Chauvet show this (Whitehouse, 2001) These paintings are just as artistic and complex as the Lascaux paintings found later the Chauvet drawings are 10,000 years older., This possibly indicates that art developed much earlier than thought before.

Moving on in history we see that several cultures chose to depict important parts of their lives with mural paintings.
