Jungle Fever - Anna & Ian Go Wild
... The painting is of a man with a spear and a deer like animal. It is a strange, wonderful feeling to be looking at these ancient objects and artwork. Ian is starting to feel like Indiana Jones again. For reasons unknown the cave art was intentionally damaged (they tried to wash it away) but fortunately it is still possible to see the image.
