As a result of his studies, Dr. Michael Rappenglueck, a researcher from the
University of Munich, revealed that the paintings on the walls of the famous
Lascaux caves in central France had an astronomical significance. He reconstructed
the figures on the cave walls on computer, using the photogrammetry technique,
which showed that the geometrical circles, angles and straight lines that emerged
might all have a special significance. All values relating to the ecliptic inclination, the
precession of the equinoxes, the regular movements of the stars, the diameter and
radius of the Sun and Moon, and the refractions in the universe were added to the
computer's calculations. As a result, these outlines were seen to refer to various
constellations of stars and specific lunar motions. BBC News reported the follow-
