Update from the field: My friend's team found cave paintings in Spain
They were checking a remote cave system. The art shows animals and hand prints. It might be from the Paleolithic era.

Heard about similar handprint stencils found elsewhere.

Ever wonder why they're always hands, not feet?

Andrew's right, they're all over the place. I saw a whole wall of them in a cave system out west, dozens of them. Makes you wonder what the big deal was with leaving your mark like that. Taylorgonzalez has a point about it always being hands too. Maybe feet were just harder to stencil without falling over. The whole thing feels like a basic human urge, to say "I was here.
