Just when we think we're getting somewhere ... How evolved are we, though, when it comes down to it?

Very true. I've said this before. We'd like to think that we have come a long way, but have we really? Sure, we can build ever more powerful computers, build large, long haul aircraft, paint a painting, write a sonnet, but are we any different than the humans of several thousand years ago? From hieroglyphs to emojies, gladiatorial games to professional sports, chariot racing to NASCAR, are we any different? Have we really come as far as we think we have?

Yes, it was around recently. My comment was that, even when it seems like a step backwards, at least this time we are using colors ?

They did in ancient Egypt too, but the paint has faded over the past few thousands of years.

@LEPeff good one !! The one in the picture is carved in the wall, not paint ??

@IamNobody but after they were carved into stone the Egyptians would paint the to add some visual pop. Paint traces have been found during testing.

@LEPeff just messing with you... No worries
