Description:
Giant cave bears were creatures to be feared–and revered. Thousands of years ago, early humans painted images of them on cave walls. By the end of the ice age, the last of the cave bears had died out. The only things left were their bones—hundreds of thousands of bones—and eerie paintings in the caves they once inhabited.Ice Age Cave Bear tells the story of these massive creatures in fascinating detail—what they looked like, where and how they lived, and what may have caused their extinction. Author Barbara Hehner takes us back to a time when the enormous bears lived alongside such ice age giants as mammoths, woolly rhinos, and cave lions—as well as Neanderthals and other early human beings. And she examines the question of whether or not ancient peoples actually worshipped the cave bear.From the Hardcover edition.
