Tens of thousands of prehistoric paintings have been revealed for the first time since they were discovered by a British-Colombian archaeological team in the Amazonian rainforest a year ago. Hailed as the “Sistine Chapel of the ancients”, the drawings of animals and humans were created up to 12,500 years ago on nearly eight miles of cliff in Colombia.
