Discussion Questions
- Many caves have become National Parks. Can you explain why?
- Why would people long ago use caves?
(Caves provide shelter from enemies, and from bad weather in the summer or the winter, and provide certain mineral resources.)
- Many pictures and art from ancient peoples have been found in caves. Why would this be?
(No plants grow in caves, and leaves would not cover the remains. Also, dry caves preserve bones, bodies, and art.)
- Both ancient art and street graffiti are similar. They are both drawn on walls or rocks. How are they different?
