The Oldest Animal Painting In The World

historical-nonfiction:




On the Indonesian island of Borneo, in the remote mountains of the province of East Kalimantan, lives the world’s oldest depiction of an animal. Or rather, three animals. A painting of three cows covers a wall inside the Lubang Jeriji Saléh cave. And one cow appears to have a spear in its flank. Dating back 40,000 years, they are now considered the oldest known figurative painting. We have older paintings, but they depict abstract shapes, not real-life objects.
