Prehistory


Our ancestors were brainy and brilliant in many ways, especially in survival circumstances. They discovered fire and used this for brightness and sometimes as a weapon; primitives were the best hunters and gatherers, they learned how and what to eat from hunting. They were the first ones who started drawing, and as we saw at class, they can be called artists. They started painting in caves everything they saw, maybe in hope or with the purpose that one day somebody could interpret them and inform how things started once upon a time.

I have been in many archeological sites and museums, so I believe that primitive knew the best way to teach us about the ancient times, I never used to think about coincidences because everything is exactly and has logic. Their religion, culture and manners is so exciting.

When I saw this video, I knew about the paintings and weapons they used, but I didn’t know anything about constellations its relation with the zodiac signs. I admit that I always wanted to know where zodiac came from, but honestly I have the same doubts the video mentioned. Why these people had to compare constellations with animals? I know because of the form or shape, but I think this is a coincidence, I mean astronomers today aren´t sure how ancestors measured. How can astronomers compare degrees or inches with measures of centuries ago? So I have to say, this video just informed me but didn’t convinced me.
