mostly the nude sculpture ones, Greeks found beauty in the naked human body. In

Art that can be found in the caves before, and caves was acknowledge as shelter
during ice age. Commonly, these arts created by homo sapiens and some claims that
the reason why homo sapiens draw in the caves because they want to record what kind
of occurrence or animals they encountered. It’s just like a diary to them. Also, the
symbols they had made may have meaning among the artist and their earliest form of
communication.

I really like how ancient or Greek used stones as their own sculpture. We all
know that sculptures have meanings, and person behind stone carving or sculpture
before was indeed amazing. Architecture structures made from stones seems realistic
to see.
