What are the famous murals in altamira Cave?

Altamira Cave is located in Santander in northern Spain. It was discovered by a hunter chasing prey at 1868, and was excavated and studied by the local Lord Sir Sodora. He found a large number of primitive stone tools, bone implements, fire ashes and animal bones underground. By 1872, due to the discovery of a girl, more than 20 "cow halls" with various animal images were discovered. This so-called "hall" is a big cave, about 18 meters wide and about 9 meters wide. Various animals are painted on the ceiling of the cave, especially bison in various postures. Compared with Lascaux, these murals are obviously more neat and exquisite, and their styles are more unified. The most typical example is the injured bison, which is often quoted by people. It is rendered in black, red and white with lines in the middle, which accurately and vividly shows the ups and downs of bison's body. The rest, such as standing, growling and kneeling, are lifelike and leap from the wall. It seems incredible that such a highly mature work was written by primitive humans 14000 ~ 10000 years ago. Therefore, Sudora's discovery has always been suspected by the archaeological community. It was not until 190 1 that Lamut discovered the murals of two prehistoric caves, Kangbalai and Fangtegaom, that the great value of altamira was determined. Confessions of a Skeptic was published in the Anthropology Yearbook of 1902, which finally restored the reputation of Sir Sodora who was about to die.
