In northern Spain, in Cantabria, we can find the
marvellous Altamira paintings. These paintings are in a cave and have 20.000
years old. There are seventeen decorated caves with different skins of animals
like an extinct species of bison, wild boar… They
are also inscribed as exceptional testimonies to a cultural tradition and as outstanding
illustrations of a significant stage in human history.
Since the 28th of February, small groups of
five persons with a guide can visit it. This people are chosen by randomly.
If and when they wear protective clothes, masks and shoes in order to don’t
damage the ancient paintings.
The scientists do this for determine if the paintings
should be reopened to the public permanently.
To tell the truth is a great idea, sentence young
people may visit the wonderful caves. Sometimes ago nobody went there. I think
is good for the historian too, because if finally the caves will open, we will
know much more. And it’s probably that I will go to visit them.
