Below is a link to a report about newly re-discovered rock art from Egypt that is considered to be from 15,000 years before present. It is very similar to cave art in Lascaux and Altamira (Europe), which is believed to be the same age. These paintings and rock carvings (petroglyphs) depict surprisingly realistic well formed images of animals as well as some more abstract symbols.
Rock art is found in many parts of the world, and some is older than 40,000 years old. There are many examples in Africa, Australia, Asia, America and Western Europe. But rock carvings (petroglyphs) in Egypt are noted for their similarity not only in form and content, but also in age, to those of Lascaux. Since they had been previously mostly unknown or ignored because there was no explanation that would not upset conventional timelines, their recent rediscovery once again challenges the ideas of how such seemingly identical cultures existed without any apparent interaction between them.
While it is possible that there was travel and interaction between groups of people from Egypt and Europe in what is considered to be no more than an early "stone age", there is information available in Oahspe which can help to explain the similarities across cultures which had no interaction.
Oahspe has shown that through the concerted actions of the Gods and Lords and their hosts of angels of the various divisions of the earth and its heavens, mankind has been cultivated through spirit to develop. Thus, the connection being one of spirit, did not require physical interaction between those cultures. From Oahspe we also know that, since the flood, it was from Arabin'ya (Egypt and the Middle East), westward that descendents of the tribes of Ham, survivors of the flood would migrate, hence it should not be surprising that even in pre-historical artifacts, there is evidence of the waves of culture spreading North and West. Interesting to note that the apparent 15,000 years before present date of these particular rock carvings in Egypt, coincide with Thor's cycle on the earth (beginning circa 15,400 before present). In this cycle, people all over the world were given signs and symbols from which sprung modern man's first written language (other than I'hin).
Oahspe's unique knowledge is confirmed in these details because none of these sites were known to modern man at the time that Oahspe was written. Lascaux was discovered in 1940 and Altamira (the first one) had only been discovered in 1880, but was believed to be a fraud until around 1902 when other caves had been found which corroborated such unusual artforms. Herein it is shown that Oahspe, from the spirit, has revealed what was yet to be evidence in physical evidence many years later.
Oahspe, The Lord's Fourth
Bk, 1,
||17/1.2. God said: Behold, with my sacred people I have established myself
in written words.
Now it has come to pass that all the races of man on earth shall be made to know me.
17/1.3. God commanded man to make stone and wooden images, and engravings also, of
everything upon the earth. And so man made them; according to his own knowledge he made them.
17/1.4. God said: As every living creature has a name, so shall its image and its engraving have the
same name. And so shall it be with all things on the earth, in its waters, and in the air above the earth;
the image and the engravings shall have the same names as the real things themselves.
17/1.5. And God sent his angels down to man, to inspire him in the workmanship of images and e
ngravings, and man thus accomplished the commandments of God. 17/1.6. And these were the first
writings since the flood, other than those that were kept secret among the I'hins.....||

Egypt’s oldest Art Identified: 11 Jul, 07. Extract: || Is
15,000 Years Old. Rock face drawings and etchings recently rediscovered in
southern Egypt are similar in age and style to the iconic Stone Age cave
paintings in Lascaux, France, and Altamira, Spain, archaeologists say.
"It is not at all an exaggeration to call it 'Lascaux on the Nile,'" said expedition leader Dirk Huyge....... The art is "unlike anything seen
elsewhere in Egypt," he said. The drawings "push
Egyptian art, religion, and culture back to a much earlier time," Ikram
said. ....... The Qurta art has now twice been uncovered by modern researchers.
Some of the engravings were first found in 1962 by a group from the
University of Toronto, Canada......... There is "little doubt" the
engravings are 15,000-years-old, Huyge said.

In the meantime,the finding has raised a big question: How were people in Western Europe and southern Egypt producing almost identical artwork at the same time? While the caves at Lascaux are best known for their painted images of bulls and cows, that artwork is actually outnumbered by stone engravings. And the Lascaux engravings are virtually identical to those in Qurta, Huyge pointed out. "I'm not suggesting that the art in the caves of Lascaux was made by Egyptians or that [European] people were in Egypt," he said. "The art is so similar that it reflects a similar mentality, a similar stage of development," he added. "When people are confronted with similar conditions, this will automatically lead to a similar kind of thinking, a similar creativity.".............||
