Question

What signs have archaeologists uncovered that suggest religious belief dates back to early 60,000 years ago?

Answer 1

Answer:

One of the signs that suggests religious belief 60,000 years ago is the Rhino Cave.

Explanation:

The Rhino Cave is a prehistoric cave painting from about 65,000 and 70,000 years ago. The cave also was where archaeologists found that these humans sacrificed carefully made spearheads by burning them or smashing them on a large rock.

According to the Smithsonian “'We can be sure that in instances like that, they believed in some sort of spiritual force,' says Smith. 'And they believed that art, and ritual in relation to art, could affect those spiritual forces for their own benefit. They’re not just doing it to create pretty pictures. They’re doing it because they’re communicating with the spirits of the land.'”
