I read the story earlier today, and did some checking. Here's a
quote from a two-year old story I found on the Net:
"When most people look at stone-age cave paintings, they see
charging bulls, prancing reindeer and other animals.
Dr. Michael A. Rappenglueck also sees maps of the night sky, and
images of shamanistic ritual teeming with cosmological meaning."
BBC should be ashamed of publicizing such nonsense.
My opinion.
