Painting • No one knows why CroMagnon men painted marvelous and astonishing paintings on rock walls that were deep within caves. • They used natural colors, made out of mineral pigments, such as iron oxide and black manganese. • They painted stick figures, although the animals they painted were well-painted. CroMagnons also filled in natural colors to give the paintings more shape and substance. • They thought when they painted animals it gave them powers because it was part of their religion.(6)
