The cave paintings of Lascaux (in southwestern France) date to around 15,000 B.C.E. and are among the finest examples of prehistoric art known. Ever since the paintings were discovered, scholars have puzzled over their purpose. According to one widely discussed interpretation, the paintings were made to ensure a successful hunt. Several considerations support this view.
The reading states that Lascaux, a cave with a more detailed example of prehistoric art, had several paintings that reflect a successful hunt related to those people who lived in the time and provides three reasons to support it. However, the professor explains that these reasons actually have little support and refutes all of the reasons.
First, that the specific animals hunted were the subject of the painting in the cave, as the reading claims, is rejected in the lecture. The professor says there are some animals' paintings that are not hunted at all. According to the professor, some animals like cats, which have not been hunted by Paleolithic people, were painted on the cave, whereas some other animals like rhinoceros which have been hunted mostly, were not painted at all. Therefore, the paintings in the cave are not associated with hunting.
Second, based on the reading, the cave painting includes humans that might be the hunter. In contrast, the professor explains that there are some human figures that indicate they are not hunters. In addition, there are some paintings depending on the position of the human figures, like horizontally, that scholars do not know about the aim of these pictures.
Third, the author says that if someone painted a picture, it would represent a reality. The professor casts doubt on this point by saying that some paintings have an imaginary purpose and have nothing to the hunt. For example, in ritual ceremonies, people use these kinds of pictures.
