This theory is about the Sorcerer of Les Trois Freres Cave figure in France. The Sorcerer (also called the Shaman or Dancing Shaman) has antlers, a beard, tail — looks like it’s dancing. There is a large image in the Milky Way that I think is the Sorcerer in the cave. (Date: about 13,000 BC)

The Trois Freres Cave Reindeer and Bison in the Milky Way Theory
March 21, 2016/Lynn
This theory is about two figures in the Cave of Les Trois Freres in France. One looks like a reindeer and the other is a bison-type image. There are images in the Milky Way that I think are the cave figures. (Date: about 13,000 BC)

Markings Next to Cave Figures
There are also many markings next to the reindeer/bison cave figures that I think are images next to the reindeer/bison Milky Way figures.

This theory is about a South African San painting at Game Pass Shelter. It looks like a thin figure holding the tail of an eland (antelope). There are images in the Milky Way that I think are the San painting figures.
