The caves seem to be a school for children of early humans that lived 13 thousand years ago. Paintings on cave walls show how they learned the art with the guidance of their parents.
The conclusion appears in a conference on Children's Archaeology at Cambridge University that took place last week. The researchers revealed his research on the most famous prehistoric caves in France.
At the Rouffignac cave looks stunning images of mammoths, rhinoceroses, and horses. The series of paintings were found in a 5-mile strip along the so-called "Hundred Mammoth."

Not long ago scientists developed a method to identify the age and gender of the people who make these paintings. Result, the image was created by artist and five-year-old girl. Surely the boy helped his parents because his paintings are in a high wall.
Also seen thousands of lines which is a simple form of art or decoration, known as finger fluting. This image was created by people who are running around with their hands touching the surface of the cave. There is also a gallery with the parts that make up the complex line.

Jess Cooney, an archaeologist from Walden University, United States, explained, finger fluting was made by the children due to appear in every room of the cave. "Some of the lines at the high or the ceiling is made of children who carried an adult."
According to Cooney, it did find signs made by children aged between 3 and 7 years. We, he says, has been able to identify individuals from four children who sign match. There was a girl aged around 5 years of the most productive.
The researchers suspect that, of four children, two are women. "This cave is rich in paintings done by the children. This shows that there is a special space for them. We do not yet know whether it's space to play or ritual."
Although it is impossible to determine an accurate date, a picture found in the Rouffignac cave there is a possibility 13 thousand years old. *** [DAILY MAIL | KORAN TEMPO 3666]
