Question about Aboriginal paintings?
Could somebody please explain to me how the egyptians who build great things like the pyramids and the like, were not able to make paint to last but the Australian Aboriginal People supposedly could.
Does anybody really beleive that paint that is inside a stone building, protected from the weather and had very few people going past it will not last as long as Aboriginal Art.
I mean I can’t really believe the Aboriginal people say it is 60,000 years old when it is painted on a rock face, expossed to the elements and only made with dirt, rocks and natural products.
The paint in the pyramids has worn mostly off when it is only dated at about 3,000 – 4,000 years old.
No I can’t explain it to you.
You make a good point.
I’ve often thought the same thing.
