4,000 Year Old PETROGLYPHS in Mongolia! #shorts

Today, anyone can grab a can of spray paint and tag a brick wall without a second thought. Digital graphics can be designed and shared within a matter of minutes. This is in stark contrast to those who walk the earth thousands of years ago who wanted to depict only that which was of the upmost significance. 😍

In the Gobi desert, I came upon a mountainside of abundant petroglyphs: symbols and images etched in stone from 4,000-5,000 years ago 😮. *

🪨 Depicted were
🦌 Deer w/ antlers reaching toward the sky
🐏 mountain Argali sheep
🐺 wolves
🐎 men on horseback
🏹 hunters
👶🏽 childbirth

If you had to carve something in stone, what would it be? 🤔 Comment below. 🙏🏼

* In my exuberance towards the end of the video, I said that the petroglyphs were about/over 40,000 years old. I apologize for that mistake. That estimate was... slightly off 🧡😉.

Just amazing to think about the people who carved those.

The Bronze Age was only 4000-6000 years ago. The Bronz Age Collapse was around 3200 years ago. These are likely older but we can only guess based on the flora and fauna portrayed, if any. Thanks for sharing.

The earth is just over 6, 000 years old so the petroglyphs cannot be 40, 000 years old.

they arent 40, 000 years old. more like 10, 000 to 15, 000.

Bronze age is more like 6000 years old. You said bronze age and 30, 000 years old. Which is it?
