By the time the last Neanderthal disappeared in Europe, 27,000 years ago, our direct ancestors had already, and for 5,000 years, been crawling into the belly of the earth, where in the light of the flickers of tallow candles, they had brought into being the great art of the Upper Paleolithic.
U vrijeme kad je zadnji neandertalac nestao iz Europe, prije 27.000 godina, naši su direktni preci već 5.000 godina puzali u utrobi zemlje, gdje su pod treperavom svjetlošću svijeća od loja stvarali veliku umjetnost kasnog paleolitika.
