This extraordinary painting is believed to be Epipaleolithic and is estimated to be around 8000 years old.
The scene depicts a human figure foraging honey: it's the earliest known depiction of bees and the oldest evidence of honey consumption by Homo sapiens.
It can be found at the Coves de l'Aranya, a group of caves in the municipality of Bicorp in València, Spain. The caves were used by prehistoric people who left rock art.
