The birth of human creativity, the Vaisseur Valley's decorated caves. 00:00:00
The Vaisseur Valley is on a limestone plateau in southwestern France. 00:00:07
It is home to several hidden calcareous caves. 00:00:14
This is Lascaux Cave, the most well-known. 00:00:20
The drawings here date back to the Paleolithic period, around 17,000 years ago. 00:00:25
The cave was closed in 1972 for preservation work. 00:00:33
Subsequently decorated grottoes of the Vaisseur Valley, including this Lascaux Cave, have been inscribed on the list of World Heritage. 00:00:39
In this drawing, the front foot of the horse was drawn over the bulky rock surface to give a solid impression. 00:00:47
The technique is used to express a galloping horse. 00:00:55
This drawing of cattle has many layers. 00:01:00
The front red figure is a cow, and behind her is a black ox with large horns. 00:01:04
Why did man start to draw? 00:01:10
Dr. Michel Lorblanchet has proposed a new theory through practical archaeology that takes account of the painting materials and artistic techniques of the time. 00:01:13
He puts charcoal in his mouth and sprays it onto the wall, exactly as people during the Paleolithic period used to do. 00:01:23
By blowing onto the rock, they believed that it would breathe life into something inside it. 00:01:34
People in those days believed that some kind of supernatural power existed inside the rocks. 00:01:41
They tried to capture this great power by projecting images of wild animals onto them. 00:01:48
Signs of human imagination have been found here. 00:01:55
This unicorn is drawn on the closest wall from the entrance of the Lascaux Cave. 00:02:00
People stopped painting in these caves about 10,000 years ago. 00:02:07
Once they had mastered the skills of stock farming, they started to regard themselves as superior to other animals. 00:02:12
And with that change, the great spirit in the caves was gradually forgotten. 00:02:19
