Bradshaw Foundation - Africa Rock Art Archive Welcome to the African Rock Art Archive Introduction by the Bradshaw Foundation Our ancestors originated in Africa. This continent was the birthplace of modern man and woman. By the time of the first single successful exodus 85,000 years ago, we were dancing, singing and painting. Evidence of the earliest rock art is notoriously difficult to confirm, but its tradition is not - from desert to rainforest to savanna, we see a vast display of spectacular rock art, both paintings and engravings, depicting a staggering array of subjects. Many of these, not all by any means, are presented here in the Bradshaw Foundation Africa section, one of the largest online collections of ancient African rock art in the world, brought to you in collaboration with the leading African authorities on cave paintings and petroglyph carvings. As more rock art is discovered, and dating techniques become more sophisticated, greater light is shed on the thoughts, beliefs, joys and fears of our African ancestors.
