  “This is the first Palaeolithic art ever found in Greece. It is significant because it deepens the history of art there by many thousands of years, and is like an eyewitness account of #IceAge Crete.” #IceAgeArt

  Does this push back our understanding of when ocean-going boat-building and navigation developed? If I understand the geography, Crete would be hard to reach without some real sophistication in both fields.

  Comparison of the cave art to fossil data demonstrates that an extinct endemic deer (Candiacervus) is represented at Asphendou Cave in Crete. This is the earliest figural art yet discovered in Greece.
