Oldest Rock Art Found in Indonesian Cave

Scientists found a very old painting of a hand inside a cave in Indonesia.

This hand painting is the oldest rock art ever found, made at least 67,800 years ago.

The people who made it were part of a group that traveled from Asia to Indonesia and maybe even to Australia.

The hand painting has special pointed fingers, which might have had a deeper meaning related to animals.

This discovery helps us understand how and when early humans spread around the world.

The cave is also a tourist spot with newer paintings made around 4,000 years ago.

The scientists think this art supports the idea that people reached Australia much earlier than previously thought, around 60,000 to 65,000 years ago.
