Rock paintings Guaviare Colombia

[davholla]

This art was done over a long period of time - not much is known about who did it, but it was not a local current indigenous tribe. We were told that there it was probably done by a nomadic tribe as there is similar in other parts of Colombia. There is is one painting of Megatherium a long extinct species of sloth.

Really interesting and good images! I'm attaching a photo of a life-size model of a giant sloth from the grounds of the Page Museum, at the La Brea Tar Pits in L.A.
