Which Was More Important, The Cave Or the Trip?
The Israeli research team speculated that the ancient subterranean artists who executed the drawings “might have believed that there was something special about the caves themselves.” Without having a scientific understanding of blood flow to the brain the ancient artists most probably interpreted their experiences “as metaphysical in nature.” The authors said it was maybe “not the decoration that rendered the caves significant, rather, the significance of the chosen caves was the reason for their decoration.”
In another paper the same authors said the rock face within the cave was conceived “as a membrane, a tissue connecting the here-and-now world and the underground world beyond.” The archaeologists think that when someone made the conscious choice to enter these deep, dark environments, it was “motivated by an understanding of the transformative nature of an underground, oxygen-depleted space.”

A fantastic value in organic malbec from Argentina, a fruit-forward Cotes du Rhone from a ripe vintage, a classic racy albariño from northwestern Spain, an affordable and delicious Sonoma chardonnay and a delightful new rosé prosecco - yeah, we can drink well this week, my friends.
GREAT VALUE
Three stars (Extraordinary)
The purple ruby color of this wine promises intensity, and the flavors deliver with notes of blackberry, blueberry, violets, wild thyme and rosemary. This exciting wine is made with organic grapes and aged in concrete, which gives the wine a little rustic texture while allowing the top-quality fruit to shine. A terrific bargain
