Lukisan Tertua di Dunia Bukan di Eropa — Tapi di Sebuah Gua di Indonesia

As a child, what was the first thing you drew? The sun between two mountains? Or a trace of your own palm? It turns out that simple impulse is one of humanity's oldest instincts. And for over 100 years, the world believed that the first human art was born in Europe—in the caves of Lascaux and Chauvet. Until the limestone caves in Maros-Pangkep, South Sulawesi, forced entire history books to be rewritten. In this video, we explore: → Maros-Pangkep Karst & its hundreds of prehistoric caves → Discovery of Leang Bulu' Sipong 4 (2017) & hunting paintings 44,000 years old (Nature, 2019) → Therianthrope: half-human, half-animal figures — oldest evidence of imagination → Uranium method: how scientists measure the age of paintings → Why European finds (20,000 years) are twice as old → Record streak: 2014 hand stencil, Leang warty pig Tedongnge 45,500 years old (2021) → And the pinnacle: Leang Karampuang — 51,200 years old (Nature, July 2024), the oldest cave paintings in the world, led by Indonesian researcher Adhi Agus Oktaviana (BRIN) The earliest stories of humanity, as far as has ever been discovered, spoken in Indonesia.
