Talk by G. E. Daniel , Ph.D.
The accidental discovery in 1940 of cave paintings and engravings at Lascaux in the South of France was one of the most remarkable events in archaeology, and the paintings themselves have been called one of the wonders of the world.
In this talk Dr. Daniel reviews two recent books on the subject, and gives his own impressions of the caves and some reflections on Upper Palaeolithic Cave Art.
