Previously, researchers believed that cave paintings and other symbols were only found in Europe from around 40,000 years ago.

Another team found incredibly compelling evidence of symbolism in South Africa's Blombos cave.…

As Baylouni (2013: 89) puts it, ‘[m]uch transformation occurs through both the dynamics of everyday life and member involvement in movement institutions that…

in America. This dream, however, has been shattered by the increasing wealth gap, class distinctions, and political corruption.
