Prehistoric cave paintings... by hearing this term the "Bison in Altamira Cave" comes into my mind.One of the earliest signs of human creativity.I still remember that black & white picture in my sixth standard history book.Looking at that picture I used to visualize a shadowy dark cave with almost extinguished fire in the centre,group of men dressed in animal skins,talking in weird languages,painting bison in that psychedelic studio.Later I have found several references to this painting including Satyajit Ray's last movie "Agantuk".This has been always a topic of interest and wonder to me.
