An unusual gallery it was a beautiful afternoon in the woods near the French village of Montignac.0:13
The sky was blue and autumn leaves covered the ground.0:36
Four friends strolled happily among the tall trees, telling stories about treasures that people had hidden in the forest.0:41
As they were walking, one of the boys fell over.0:50
When the others ran to help him, they saw that there was a hole in the ground.0:53
Could this be a tunnel with hidden treasures in it?0:59
The boys started to dig, trying to make the hole bigger so that they could climb in and have a look.1:03
By this time, though, it was getting dark and they didn't have a torch, so they decided to come back early.1:10
The next day, they returned to the woods before school.1:17
One by one, the boys lit their torches and crawled into the small, dark tunnel.1:22
After about 10 minutes, the boy who was at the front let out a loud gasp when he pointed his torch at the wall.1:28
Everyone was amazed to see the walls covered with colourful pictures of horses, deer and oxen.1:38
The friends ran quickly to school and told their teacher all about their fantastic discovery.1:46
She called an expert, who went immediately to examine the paintings.1:54
Later that day, their teacher asked the boys to stay behind after school.1:58
They thought that they had done something wrong, but they were relieved when they saw their teacher's smiling face.2:04
The expert had confirmed that the boys were the first modern people to lay eyes upon the famous Lascaux paintings, which were at least 17,000 years old.2:12
They felt really proud.2:24
