A glimpse into prehistoric life

A glimpse into prehistoric life: Stunning 7,000-year-old hunting scenes discovered inside a Spanish cave

Cave paintings dating from 7,000 years ago have been discovered in Spain, which show hunting scenes including human archers
NEW The paintings were discovered on a 19ft (6metre) wall in a small cave in Vilafranca in Castellón, in eastern Spain. Archaeologists discovered the ancient artwork, which includes drawings of two aurochs, which were ancestors of modern cattle, two human archers and a goat. The Spanish cave is not the only cave painting to show ancient man hunting animals such as aurochs, and others in the country depict humans firing arrows at clusters of deer.
