Week 9: Rispetto - Bones That Challenge Our Ideas
Bones That Challenge Our Ideas
Does abstract thought indication a human soul?
Does seven parallel lines carved on a rib bone,
Hint cognition is part of human evolution as a whole?
Did cognition increase as our knowledge has grown?
Does ochre on the bone imply creativity?
Does it suggest artistic proclivity?
Will it change our view of our predecessors,
And make us think of them as our ancestors?
Form:Rispetto
Number of lines: 8
