What captured the fancy of an unknown cave artist more than 17,000 years ago was a rockin’ kangaroo.
To put things in chronological perspective, that bouncing beast graced the earth more than 600 human generations ago. Its image was discovered in what is now Western Australia, and was then dated by a team of researchers from the University of Melbourne.
Although this portrait is quite old, the “rock art from islands of Southeast Asia” dates back an amazing 40,000 years.
