Description

Ancient wall art has been discovered around the world, left behind by our ancient ancestors. This book investigates who created these mysterious artworks and why. The investigation is half the fun, and the stunning artwork on display is a major part of the appeal. From the deserts of North America to the caves of Papua New Guinea, the book showcases a range of ancient rock paintings, drawings, and etchings. With extensive back matter, including a bonus double foldout gatefold, this book is perfect company for those interested in pictorial nonfiction. The robust back matter includes a world map with keyed rock art sites, an author's note, and a glossary, making it a great choice for those looking to learn more about prehistory, art, anthropology, and geography.
