Ancient Cave Art Discovery Rewrites British History

A team found art in 1912. The cave is in Wales. It is near the sea. The art was on the walls. It had red stripes. People thought it was old art.

In 1928, experts looked at it. They said it was not art. They said the red came from rocks. They said it was a natural thing. The art was forgotten for a long time.

Dr. George Nash studied it. He used new tools. The tools showed the real age. The art is 17,100 years old. It is the oldest art in Britain. The paint has special stuff inside.
