INCREDIBLE CAVE PAINTINGS 8 MILES-LONG REVEALED DEEP IN AMAZON FOREST: THE
SISTINE CHAPEL OF ANCIENTS

Tens of thousands of pristine cave paintings were found daubed across an
eight-mile stretch of rock in a once-in-a-century discovery in Colombia’s Amazon
rainforest.
Hailed as the “Sistine Chapel of the Ancients,” it’s the kind of discovery that
changes the world of archaeology.
Believed to be 12,500 years old, the art is extremely detailed, and includes
handprints and depictions of Ice Age megafauna like the mastodon, a relative of
the mammoth, Ice Age horses, and giant ground sloths.
The discovery, made in Chiribiquete National Park in the south of Colombia, was
actually made in 2019 but was kept quiet to be revealed in a major documentary
called Jungle Mystery: Lost Kingdoms of the Amazon.
Presumably, archaeologists also want to preserve as much time to study the art
alone as they can, as the news could draw tourists, or even looters and artifact
hunters to the site.

The discoverers suspect the works could have been made by Paleolithic hunters
who crossed the Bering land bridge into the new world from Siberia.
OF MAJESTY AND MYSTERY
A joint Colombian-British team made the discovery, led by Jose Iriarte, a
professor of archaeology at Exeter University, who was quite vocal about the raw
power of literally tens of thousands of different images, some of which are so
well done they include horse tails with individual hairs painted.

“When you’re there, your emotions flow… We’re talking about several tens of
thousands of paintings. It’s going to take generations to record them … Every
turn you do, it’s a new wall of paintings,” he told the Observer.

Further complicating the mystery is that the paintings cover nearly every inch
even far up the cliff faces where they were only seen clearly when the
archaeologist broke out the flying camera drones.
“I’m 5ft 10in and I would be breaking my neck looking up. How were they scaling
those walls?” said Paleo-archaeologist Ella Al-Shamahi, who will present the new
documentary.
Along with large mammals, birds, fish, lizards—masked figures often in dance are
also painted here.
Trees and hallucinogenic plants are also depicted, which wasn’t a surprise to
Iriarte who noted that “for Amazonian people, non-humans like animals and plants
have souls, and they communicate and engage with people in cooperative or
hostile ways through the rituals and shamanic practices that we see depicted in
the rock art.”
Chiribiquete was an area that was controlled by the anti-government paramilitary
organization FARC until recently, when they signed a truce with Bogota, which is
likely one reason why it’s taken so long to discover such an enormous trove of
cave paintings.
GIPRI Colombia/YouTube
Al-Shamahi recalled, according to the Guardian, that “when we entered FARC
territory, it was exactly as a few of us have been screaming about for a long
time. Exploration is not over. Scientific discovery is not over but the big
discoveries now are going to be found in places that are disputed or hostile.”

The team will be back, searching the surrounding areas for more paintings as
soon as COVID-19 allows.
Jungle Mystery: Lost Kingdoms of the Amazon debuted on Channel 4 in the UK in
December. Watch a clip below…

There were giants before the great flood and they would have had the ability
to stand facing the walls to record these writings. That is my take
