The incredible birth of prehistoric astronomy ... What if Lascaux, the Sistine Chapel of Prehistory, was first and foremost a temple dedicated to the celestial constellations ... Aberrant? Yet this is the demonstration that Chantal J gues-Wolkiewiez, independent ethnologist and astronomer, holder of a state thesis on engravings in the Valley of Wonders, is trying before our eyes. Between a police investigation and an astronomical tale, this film immerses us in the mists of time and tells the emergence of a new science, at the crossroads of two disciplines: astronomy and prehistory. ...Lascaux - The Sky of the First Men ( Lascaux - Le ciel des premiers hommes )
