Rock-shelter near Çakallar volcano in modern-day Turkey revealing rock art that might illustrate the appearing volcano.

Research study, released in the journal Quaternary Science Reviews(********************************* ), intended to identify the age of ancient footprints discovered in the ash layer produced by the Çakallar volcano eruption, which occurred in the Kula UNESCO Geopark, in Manisa Province, Turkey. The “Kula footprints”, protected in fine-grained ashes, were found in the 1960 s throughout building work. Previous research studies recommended the footprints were 247,000- years-old and came from Homo neanderthalensis Nevertheless, utilizing modern-day radiometric dating techniques, a research study group from Istanbul Technical University, Hacettepe University, Celal Bayar University and Curtin University, Perth, had the ability to exactly date the ashes into the Bronze Age, 4,700 years earlier. This brand-new date recommends that the footprints were left by modern-day human beings which they experienced the lasts of the volcanic eruption from a safe range. The footprints were left in a damp ash layer. As the volcanic eruption continued, the footprints were buried by a protective ash layer and protected to this day. A red ochre painting, found in 2008 in a rock-shelter situated near the volcano, might even reveal the minute of the ancient eruption. The rock-shelter is a simple 1.2 miles from the fossil footprints, about a 20- minute leave. The art, understood by the residents as the Kanlitas rock painting, reveals a mix of abstract signs and handmarks. According to the research study, the abstract signs, lines and a circle, might reveal the volcanic erection of Çakallar with its crater. The handprints above the volcano might represent a cloud of ash and the radiant volcanic ejecta, as typically seen throughout a volcanic eruption An interesting analysis, however like often in modern-day art, we might never ever understand exactly what the ancient artist wished to reveal us.
