Has anyone tried to look at these Cave drawing, that usually are found from Indonesia to France with some common factors, we call those common factors of proto language like hand prints, dots, vertical line and animal drawing. I think they are not proto language they are proto ledgers that created the need for language hence also proto language. Logically a human's need to communicate begins with the need to eat. But food assurance is only possible in herds and cooperation, it is obvious that a tribe that got lucky in one year, may be sitting on valuable animal track information that is not useful for them this year because they are well stocked already, but next year they may not be so lucky and hence a ledger will begin, to trade information on hand from this year to an assurance (balance) that is a credit for the next year. Same thing that we do today in our ledgers. I think the reason all the paintings are found concentrated usually in one cave in particular parts is because they were also market places like craig list, draw what you got to sell this year, the purchaser will look at the list and leave a hand print indicating "on my way to buy this one already”, transaction closed. If you arrive late, look for the ones without the hand prints, they might still be available, do not unnecessarily travel to far distances where there is nothing left to sell this year. Two different looking hand prints could be a contract of balance to be settled later. The missing finger hand could be that of an elder or more like a treasurer keeping track of balances and peace between tribes by making sure, ledgers are not corrupted, accounting and concluding perpetually = Wroth based Ledger. What do you think? Is it worth a PHD or at least view the evidence with a new outlook of economics?
