I've been obsessed with rock art for the past several years. It I was so happy when Audible made this a "suggestion" for me. I love it! OK, some episodes are more closely aligned with my personal interests than others, but it's so educational, yet lively. Two thumbs up--5 stars, and all that positive recommendation!

I'm so glad I found this podcast!

The interpretation of the rock art should not contain that much details of Christianity. It takes away the magnificent similarities of human society and how it works over time and space.

To much Christianity in the interpretation of the subject.
