The+cave+printing

__Back to Teaching Technology__ The first types of literacy tool to deliver knowledge are symbols from the __[|cave printing][1]__. The cave printing or rock art can be traced back to prehistoric times. Those printing were printed at cave walls, floors, and even in deep and almost inaccessible crannies. Some evidences indicated that those caves were not used in living areas. Therefore, some scientists think that the prints were used for earlier communication or for religious or ceremonial purpose. People and animals were shown in most printings.
