Abstract
On April 14, 2003, I made the first discovery of Palaeolithic cave art in Britain. With Paul G. Bahn, we had always thought that it was very strange his absence. Actually, Church Hole is a station of great importance with a total (still provisional) of 215 figures perfectly identified, with a series of layouts like the presence of light low-reliefs or champlevé, the use of natural forms with some engraved elements, we can find items that are not very usual like dogs, birds and the technical convention that we call “the creswellian eye” who individualizes this art, but it is also very close of the esthetics and of the continental style. Datings with Uranium/Thorium carried out with the University of Bristol locate all this figures between 12.800 and 12.630 B.P. clearly creswellian.
