Serious question

i couldn't dissagree with you more. i felt that his approach was intended to make you THINK about what those paintings mean both historically and spiritually. what do they mean to the people who work around them? what do they mean to you? did they dream? what did they dream about? to me, these are all very interesting questions. if you don't like thinking outside of the box, i suggest sticking to the discovery channel. it's geared towards children so you'll probably love it.

He was asking question very important to historians.

Who are these people?
What was the caves for?
What were their lives like?

I do have problems with him talking too much, but not the ideas behind the comments.

1. "Silence..." He needed to just tell people to shhh. The audience get it. He's trying to get the audience to feel like what it is to draw in the cave, walking in the cave, put ourselves in the feet of the cavepainters.

2. Again he's rambling, but he's saying the work being done isn't simply to distill the drawings into a bunch of data. It is to come up with an idea of how people lived at that time, and what the drawings were for.

I didn't think funny at all but reading now...

"Its like you are creating an entire phone directory for Manahattan, 4 million precise entries, but do the dream, do they cry at night? What are their hopes, what are their families? We will never know from the phone directory."

It's really hilarious.
