Cave art, dating back to 12,000 years has been discovered at Creswell Crags in Nottinghamshire, central England. The cave art is the first ever, Ice Age cave art that has been identified as such, in England.
The cave art consists of drawings of a bison, a portion of a horse, two different ibex (wild goat), several birds, and various geometric patterns. These drawings have been discovered over the past three months, officials from the British Heritage stated on Thursday.
