For during the last glaciation, Huyge says, the level of the
Mediterranean Sea was about 100 meters lower than today,
and therefore he does not rule out the possibility that people
of the Palaeolithic established contact with Egypt and may
even have exchanged artistic and symbolic concepts.
Klaus Schmidt, also made a few tentative comparisons with
Egypt, but art of much later times, during the era of its
famous kings.
But, The existence of ancient artistic remains on the
African continent has long been known. Thus, in 1969, were
discovered in a cave in Namibia, stone plates with painted
animals that can be dated to 26,000 years ago! In Egypt,
there are now scores of sites with Palaeolithic artwork, in
caves and in the open air. Thus Gordon is on fairly firm
ground if he compares Gobekli Tepe with the Rock Art of
Upper Egypt, which does indeed show forms that may
persist into historical, pharaonic times. The uncertainty is
caused by the Egyptians ideological reworking of their own
prehistory, motivated by politics, a process that has
obscured the links between dynastic and predynastic
imagery.
