Was it the supranatural agency involved with inspiring humans to do the cave paintings of Lascaux 20,000yrs ago ?

Still can't get over such beautiful forms, exquisite use of pigmentation , shadings so long ago , this also presents an even separate avenue for the developing mind of man and invention of other technologies employing materials (out of Nature) for a new evolving plethorum of reasons .One see's in this how our mind has expanded to embrace an aesthetic and developed the coordinated skillsets that took a journey of literally millions of years to these more "recent" bronze age beauties .

Painted almost in darkness ,almost 20,000yrs old these deep cave galleries contain almost 2000 figures , interestingly not one painting of the reindeer that would have been their primary foodsource .... or to anyone's astonishment not one figure depicting the Angel Gabriel or Aliens was found there .
