One of the graves, at Russia's 24,000-year-old Sunghir site, contains a boy and a girl buried head to head, dusted in red ocher, and ornamented with thousands of ivory beads, fox-teeth pendants, and pierced antlers. Solis showed off one of the new artifacts that appeared during her recent survey; a flat stone with a baked effigy in the red ocher. The last time I wrote for MAAO was as an artist, for a 1996 exhibition of my photographs of Basotho dwellings and ceremonies, which connect art and rain through red ocher and the blood of sacrifice. |
