‘Paleolithic is the name given to that period of Man’s history before he invented agriculture, domesticated animals, or discovered the use of metals. For his subsistence he depended on hunting and gathering, a way of life that sufficed for more than two million*** years. Art, however, had not so long a development, and is known only from the latest, or Upper, stage of the Paleolithic, a period we recognise by technological changes in bone-and-flint-tool production that took place c40,000 years ago.’
