Cave of Forgotten Dreams Page #4
- The fire were necessary
to look at the paintings
and maybe towards
staging people around.
When you look with the flame,
with moving light,
you can imagine people dancing
with the shadows.
Like Fred Astaire.
- Fred Astaire, yes.
I think that this image
dancing with this shadow
is a very strong and old images
of human representation,
because the first representation
was the walls,
the white wall
and the black shadow.
The presence of humans
in the cave
was fleeting like shadows.
Bear skulls everywhere,
to the cave bear,
a species, like the mammoth
and the woolly rhino,
that vanished from the face
of the Earth long ago.
Tens of thousands of years
has left a thick coating
of calcite on this skull.
It now has the appearance
of a porcelain sculpture.
In all this menagerie of bones,
there's not a single
human specimen.
Scientists have determined that
humans never lived in the cave.
They used it only for painting
and possibly ceremonies.
Michel Philipe has studied
Caves
constitute a favorable place
for the preservation of bones.
As the result,
there are a lot of bear bones.
Overall, this represents
but there are also some wolves.
We have two skulls
and have several bones.
We have a few ibexes.
We have a magnificent skull
on the wet sand with calcite,
quite lovely.
they are calcite crystals
that glisten.
There are some horses as well.
There is a cave hyena.
What else is there?
There's also an eagle skeleton,
a golden eagle,
practically whole,
but it may be
a little more recent,
carried in by the run of water
and wedged against the big rocks
at the edge of the waterway.
So you can see its bones
spread out
over ten feet in length.
Our goal is not only to say
but we also try to understand
if they lived there,
if they were moved,
how they were transported.
Did the bears bring the bones?
have been chewed on a little.
So it could have been the bears
or the hyenas.
All the scientists
are lodged
Although they each have
their special field,
they compare and combine
their findings.
We were interested in the work
of these two.
Carole, Gilles, can you explain
about what you're doing here?
- Yeah, oui.
In the cave,
we are trying to reveal
the contours
of underlying designs
that are hard to follow
with the naked eye.
Because we are not supposed
to touch the wall,
we take a series of photos that
we put together in a mosaic.
We are trying to achieve
a maximum of detail.
