@liamomaraiv.bsky.socialThe #LascauxCave/#GrotteDeLascaux #CavePaintings were discovered on #ThisDayInHistory in 1940 when a boy's dog inspected a hole left by an uprooted tree. Their #PrehistoricArt was produced between 17,000 & 22,000 years ago. The caves have been closed since 1964 to protect them.
