Palaeolithic art developed from public galleries towards more private exhibitions

(University of the Basque Country ) Blanca Ochoa, a researcher in the UPV/EHU's department of Geography, Prehistory and Archaeology, proposes analysing the spaces in which the artistic figures of the Palaeolithic are represented to try and deduce the purpose of these expressions. In her study she observed chronological differences in the location of the drawings and engravings, which could indicate that the function and meaning of cave art gradually changed throughout the Upper Palaeolithic.
