Paleolithic Art refers to the artistic creations made by early humans during the Paleolithic era, which lasted from about 2.5 million years ago to around 10,000 BCE. This art primarily includes cave paintings, carvings, and portable sculptures, often depicting animals, human figures, and abstract symbols. Notable sites include the Lascaux Caves in France and the Altamira Cave in Spain, showcasing the creativity and cultural expression of prehistoric societies. The purpose of Paleolithic Art is still debated among researchers. Some suggest it served a ritualistic function, possibly related to hunting or fertility, while others believe it was a form of early communication or storytelling. These artworks provide valuable insights into the lives, beliefs, and environments of our ancient ancestors.
