Summary
Prehistory is primarily a contact, visual and tactile. Our senses first receive a stimulus that guides them to reflection, and rational justification comes only after this awakening to lucidity as well as to dreaming. Intellectual activity strained towards prehistory touches in the deepest the aspirations and the disturbing desires which agitate each of us on its origin, on its own nature, on its destiny. Without knowing anything about why, we seek, and this activity holds us whole in concentration, well before a possible and authentic quest for a random historical reality, it will serve at best only pretext. Like a poem, it is driven by an essential need for harmony, mystery and a vague notion of “truth”, always dreamed but never real.
