In Randall White’s Prehistoric Art: The Symbolic Journey of Humankind, we are again brought into the Paleolithic Era. In this book, some of the objectives are to illustrate how a modern Western notion of “art” impedes an understanding of the emergence and adaptive value of the earliest representations in any given region, to present the reader the newest analytical techniques for studying prehistoric representations, and to illustrate the complexity, diversity, and patterning of prehistoric art. I feel that the last objective relates most to our class.
