philosophy The Allegory of the Cave that most people are bound to their obliviousness and materialism‚ either by willful rejection or ignorance‚ which in turn makes them metaphorically blind to the true nature of reality. For instance‚ the people chained within the dark cave is a symbol for the world we currently reside in (or was resided in)‚ and the chains represent each one of us‚ who are either knowingly or unknowingly chained to the material world. The shadows the cave dwellers saw is a metaphor

paintings on cave walls found near Lascaux‚ France represent the earliest surviving examples of the artistic expression of early people. Using the natural rock contours that suggest the volume of the animals‚ these ’primitive’ people of the Paleolithic (Old Stone Age) painted evocative and startlingly accurate representations of the animals that were such an important part of their lives. Cows‚ bulls‚ horses‚ bison‚ and deer are among the animals seen on the subterranean walls of these caves. These paintings
