The instance is "Europe", the cave art is in Patagonia, which is in Argentina. Was it posted here by mistake?

It was. I must have mixed the regions. My bad.

it may have passed down information - that rock art is in super rough shape though so it's difficult to tell. a lot of archaeology/anthropology is guesswork anyway.
