I always thought that what set man apart from the rest of the animal kingdom was the fact that we made art. That in 25,000 B.C. cavemen crawled deep down into the pitch black earth to create masterpieces not because they were trying to make any money, not for anyone to see, not for a hunting ritual, but simply art for arts sake.
Whenever I spoke to anyone about why art was important, I always liked to throw in the fact (or what I thought was fact up until today) that we are the only species in the animal kingdom that makes art, and that is what set man apart in the hierarchy of the animal kingdom. I stand corrected. I was simply floored by this video.
