Firstly, the Aurignacians were the first anatomically modern humans (AMH) to settle in the area. Their culture or more accurately technocomplex lasted for roughly 14,000 years and gave us some amazing artefacts, including anatomically correct drawings and carvings, the first definite flutes and something more symbolic/folkloric like Löwenmensch.

That the research proves these artefacts and cave paintings deliberately encode or represent information is wonderful, but it's a premise that researchers have been working with for years now. We have objects with likely tally marks, for example, so the next step up is just logical. (3/12)
