Absract art and mollusc shells found in cave under the rock of Gibraltar seem to indicate complex behaviours among Neanderthals:
40,000-year-old sealed cavern gives new insight into Neanderthal life
Early art seems to have links to brain structures and ritual practices to do with hunting and interactions with the 'spirit world'. What does anyone think drove the very first attempts at representing things, impressions, feelings or whatever in art? I suppose we take that impulse for granted now, but how/why did it first appear?
