snoop1130 Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Thailand’s Fine Arts Department has announced the discovery of 14 ancient cave paintings in Sirindhorn district of the north-eastern province of Ubon Ratchathani. The paintings, believed to be between 1,500-2,000 years old, were found inside a cave, locally known as the Famue Daeng (literally meaning “red human palm”), in a village in Kham Khuean Kaeo sub-district, only about 200 metres from the Lao border, according to the Facebook page of the Region 9 Fine Arts Office in Ubon Ratchathani. Painted using natural red dye, the images were found in three locations on the cave walls, depicting animals and human hands, with some too faint to define.

ThailandRyan Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 How after all these years of the caves being visited by folks, locals mainly, did it take so long to find these drawings. We're the done with invisible ink that finally became seeable... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
