Question 1: The cave art of the Cro Magnons featured multi-colored paintings of animals such as bison‚ cattle as well as mammoths. Also included are geometric figures as well as female paintings. The animals themselves appeared to be pierced with spears in a ritualistic way.

The Allegory of the cave says that there is quite a different between appearances and reality‚ and I think that this statement could not be truer. When I hear this I think of the “perfect” family. A stay at home mom‚ a working dad‚ a daughter on the honor roll‚ and a son on the football team. They all go to church on Sunday morning and are well involved in their community.
