Exploring the intersection of political theory and Paleolithic art, the author presents a groundbreaking analysis that reinterprets ancient artifacts through the lens of Eric Voegelin's philosophical concepts. By examining cave and portable art, he argues that political life originated much earlier than traditionally thought, predating Greek civilization by 25,000 years. This work highlights the political significance of early human expressions, offering fresh insights that will engage archaeologists, prehistorians, and political scientists alike.
