Summary
(IBList user synopsis):
When Boyd discovered the fantastic cave paintings; cavorting mammoths and dancing deer, he realised that something was up. When he finds a match to the thumb prints in the ancient paint palette on the wine bottle he and his helper had shared, he is introduced to the most ancient man alive.
