In the province of Cantabria, Spain is the firsts of all the interpretation of men’s capability to get to know their minds. Art is made to provoke reaction and so our ancestors made their mark. Long before canvasses and paint brushes were invented, the early human already discovered the means of expressing the colorful side of their brain. They found shelter in caves. They want to make a story but their means of communication is not yet well developed. They want to pass the history. That is the start of the anonymous quote of “painting moments into pictures.”
Words will rumble to explain cave of El Castillo. The reverence it brings just when you place your feet at its entrance. There will be sorts of spirit-like presence that will inspire you until the end of the ride. El Castillo is considered a sacred place. The beliefs of the Neanderthals are carved inside through paintings by their bare hands. The way until the end of El Castillo is a 3 hour walk including the ducks and the sidewalks to fit in. It is not an easy trip but it will leave you imaginative visions.
El Castillo is only one of the painted caves in the globe. What is good with Spain is they kept this historical place open to the public. It is always the duty of the leader to let the people witness how human evolved. This is to cure their confused minds. This is the only way to make them stand for their belief. The Homo sapiens were believed to paint animals and pictures as some form of wizardry. Harry Potter already existed, only not in Hogwarts coat. They painted to summon the animals for their hunting. Not only one generation but different generations from ancestor to ancestor occupied the cave. This was proven by the variety of art interpreted in different ways. Our ancestors are prodigy. What is saddening about the modern version of humans is that they thought they are superior. Just because we have more books and access to different information, we belittle the original people. The source of the information we intake now. Some archaeologists even think that hand prints does not mean so much at all. If you ever tried to held hands with another people, you know it is a sign of intimacy. It is the understanding in silence. It is the transfer of thoughts through our veins.
What our ancestors are teaching us is more than anything else in this world, no one can be more than the supernatural being we praise. The universe is a vast array of planets and stars. There are phenomenon unexplained and miracles happening. This only means that with all the abilities we can develop through time by studying and learning, there are things we cannot explain. Our great grandfathers are teaching us to learn to surrender. We may try and do everything we can. We still end up finding no answers. We have to accept that we have our limits. There is more to the universe than on earth.
