Archaeologists discover 280 prehistoric engravings in Spanish cave, including rare depiction of a bear

Archaeologists have uncovered 280 prehistoric engravings in the Cova de la Font Major cave in northeastern Spain, including rare depictions of animals like a bear. Despite being a tourist site since 1957, these engravings remained unnoticed until 2019 when they were discovered during excavations. The engravings, which include geometric shapes and animal figures, are believed to be over 19,000 years old. The cave's dark corridors and graffiti have contributed to the obscurity of these artworks. Researchers are investigating the purpose of the engravings and hope to uncover more hidden artworks in the cave.
