The Perigord is home to very ancient archaeological vestiges that extend back nearly 350,000 years. The density of prehistoric deposits was such that Father Breuil used to joke that there were, in fact, only two deposits in the valley – one on the left bank and one on the right.
I've always wanted to see the paintings at Lascaux but, as a result of too many tourists and the carbon dioxide they exhale, a fungus has taken over the cave and visitors are no longer allowed inside.
I'll have to settle for this virtual tour.
