Hello to those viewing this blog,
      I'd like to share a few of the things ive learned since i began this blog. One of the cool ancient pieces of art is this old mound of dirt that wraps around this grassy area called "the serpant mound", Another is this wierd pocket size godess of fertility carved from stone, its got no face and very large and fat lady parts. There are these huge cave paintings in France and they are pretty cool lookin too, they're called "The Lascaux caves" and the bulls are 16 feet long, each! The next ancient piece of art I learned about is pretty well known, Its called Stonehenge. It was an old site for druid rituals and what not, nobody knows how the stones got that way. There are also these really old pyramids in egypt called Ziggaurats, or step pyramids. One of the last things on the list was the Great Gallery, abunch of paintings on a wall. And finally we have a mamothh carved into a bone, most likely the bone belonged to the animal depicted in the picture. I hope this info was useful,                                                                          ,Garrett Connelly
