EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Prehistoric humans hunting" takes us back in time to the Middle Palaeolithic era, approximately 200,000 years ago. The artwork depicts two early modern humans, Homo sapiens, engaged in a primal hunt for survival. In this monochrome illustration by Raul Martin, we witness the fascinating moment when these archaic Homo sapiens successfully take down a bison using their primitive weapons. The image offers a glimpse into our evolutionary past and highlights the transition from archaic to anatomically modern humans. It is believed that our species, Homo sapiens sapiens, evolved from these archaic ancestors showcased here. This portrayal of human evolution provides valuable insights into our biological and anthropological history. As we observe this duo of hunters armed with spears and tools, it becomes evident how crucial hunting was for sustenance during prehistoric times. The scene captures their bipedal nature as they navigate the outdoors in pursuit of prey. Raul Martin's artwork not only showcases an important aspect of human evolution but also emphasizes the deep connection between early humans and their environment. Through this powerful visual representation, we are reminded of our ancient ancestors' resilience and resourcefulness as they navigated a world vastly different from ours today.
