- Summary:
- For decades, it was believed that the beginnings of art had emerged in Europe, 20,000 years ago at Lascaux, then 36,000 years at Chauvet. Recent research is shaking up our understanding of art. The art of prehistory is much richer than we thought. The oldest paintings have been dated to nearly 45,000 years old! And not in Europe, but on the other side of the world, in Indonesia.
