Young men and #bears were a dangerous combination in the Late #Weichselian western #Alps for which the Late #Palaeolithic Grotte du Bichon from appr. 14,000 years ago was a master example (Morel 1993, Archäologie der Schweiz 16, 110-117. https://share.google/tkLnhernhStkVr3an ). Now another example from c. 27,000 years Arene Candide is added by new #anthropological analyses:

Reevaluating Hand Stencil Phenomena in Cave Art: A Step Forward towards the Characterization of Symbolic Patterns during the Upper #Palaeolithic in Europe.
Palaeolithic art offers a unique window into understanding prehistoric societies. Thus, the iconography, techniques and stylistic features of the Upper Palaeolithic form the basis of research and are potentially valuable sources of information about cultural and knowledge exchange networks.

🧩📢New publication announcement!
In the final research paper of EAZ 59 (2), André T. Santos advances current debates around Upper Palaeolithic rock art by shifting the focus from imagery alone to the social appropriation of space, integrating landscape, spatial practice and ontology.
