I'm a fiction writer and am always looking for inspiration. Ever since I saw Genevieve von Petzinger's TED talk, I knew I had to read this book. It did not disappoint. This bright young author expertly tackles the mysteries of the world's oldest symbols. The graphic communication signs painted on cave walls by our ancient ancestors beg us to ask, "What were they thinking?" and "What were they saying?" The author approaches the subject in a scientific manner, yet provides her personal thoughts into the mix. I've read several nonfiction books on paleoanthropology, but this is the first one I truly felt comfortable reading. I highly recommend this book.
This is a wonderful book that explores an understudied subject with breadth and depth. I have read a number of books about cave art and I loved the connections that she made, not isolating the "signs" from the art that has been studied, photographed, copied, and written about so extensively. Her scientific methods are reassuring and her careful, thoughtful hypotheses are fascinating. Chapter 13, The Lady of St.-Germain-la-Reviere and Her Mysterious Necklace, brought an amazed gasp of astonishment and appreciation.
While I enjoyed reading this book, I kept looking forward to her interpretation of the symbols. With her expertise, perhaps she had unlocked their language (?) secrets, as these same symbols kept repeating throughout Europe. No such luck. At the end I was QUITE disappointed to find out the author had no clue as to what they meant--She had unlocked NOTHING!
I’m pleased to write a short review in praise of Genevieve von Petzinger’s book, The First Signs. The work chronicles von Petzinger’s journey across rock art sites to examine carvings, lines, dots, colors, designs, patterns, and other graphic images, some dating as far back as 40,800 years ago. This is a handsomely produced book filled with black-and-white illustrations and color plates. The author uses these drawings and photographs for the benefit of her readers, often referring to them. There are 16 nicely-written chapters which appeal not only to an educated reader interested in Paleolithic rock art but to a specialist as well. I was especially impressed by chapter 13, “The Lady of St. Germain-la-Rivère and her Mysterious Necklace,†which details a 16 thousand year old grave containing a necklace of 71 deer teeth consisting of 45 differently engraved signs. The fact that these signs were strung together in sequence (now lost) attests to very early compound signs. As elsewhere in the book, von Petzinger suggests that a case for graphic communication precedes writing. The range of topics related to the subject von Petzinger covers is comprehensive. As an experienced TED Talk presenter, she ably succeeds in conveying much information gracefully. Just a few areas she easily manages include: human evolution, rock art (including types and images), language, patterns, colors, Ice Age cultures, cave paintings, hand printing, and theories of rock art (from sexual selection to shamanism). Von Petzinger has created a database of Paleolithic rock art graphics and concludes that entopic signs provide no evidence there’s a pattern of shamanistic ritual related to rock art in caves. Von Petzinger supports findings of Sally McBrearty, Alison Brooks, and April Nowell pointing to Neanderthal art and no sudden neural leap of 50 thousand years ago. I found von Petzinger’s book immensely useful and reader friendly, so I’d strongly recommend it for students of evolutionary studies. –Gregory F. Tague, Ph.D., author, Evolution and Human Culture.
A very interesting book covering a subject that is really unique, which concerns the meaning of symbolic writing that goes back to over 40,000 years ago. The author does an amazing job of taking a subject that has really no hard answers to it, and presents it in such a way that it comes across understandable, as well as very fascinating. A great presentation that unfortunately raises more questions that can possibly be answered. Would definitely recommend this to anyone interested in early man and early society. The book is well written and well edited, with a great selection of photographs that contribute to understanding the mystery of the earliest signs.
Gift for my husband, who is very interested in early cave paintings... he assumed nobody had tried to figure out the many smaller elements/representations in cave paintings, and is excited about the research presented in this book!
A work in progress with many questions to be answered. - Bernie Taylor, author / Before Orion: Finding the Face of the Hero.
I love this book-besides the content (which is very interesting!) the book is well written and reads like a favorite novel.
