人类之活动中任何一种,均不敌造型艺术永恒。昔日幸存的任何之物,均不如文明史的线索富有价值。数千年来,人们均凭借此线索了解人类习俗和信仰的知识,只是后来才通过文字实现这一目的。 岩石壁画之发明,实属人类文化的初始和发端。在没有文字的远古,亦有许多重大事件需记录流传,岩画便应运而生。 人类史已经历三百万年之久,原始社会乃人类历史的第一阶段。其时间跨度包括相当于距今三百万年到公元前四千至三千年的整个史前时期,岩画便是这一时期的原始艺术。我们无须把原始人的功利活动和艺术活动分割,因为原始人创作的任何作品,都毫不例外地拥有某种功利的、社会的、魔法的或宗教意义的目 Any of the activities of mankind, are invincible modeling art eternity.
