SEAToday.com, Maros-Pangkep - Tim Peneliti dari Badan Riset dan Inovasi Nasional (BRIN) bekerja sama dengan Griffith University dan Southern Cross University, Australia, menemukan lukisan gua yang diperkirakan berumur setidaknya 51.200 tahun di Maros-Pangkep, Sulawesi Selatan. Usia tersebut menempatkan lukisan ini menjadi lukisan gua tertua yang pernah ditemukan di dunia.

Lukisan ini menggambarkan tiga figur menyerupai manusia sedang berinteraksi dengan seekor babi hutan, ditemukan tepatnya di gua kapur di Leang Karampuang, Maros-Pangkep, Sulawesi Selatan. 

Ketua tim penelitian Adhi Agus Oktaviana menyebutkan jika penemuan ini memiliki implikasi penting terkait pemahaman mengenai asal-usul seni paling awal. Dugaan umur lukisan ini juga menjadikannya sebagai narasi seni paling awal yang pernah ditemukan dan diteliti hingga saat ini.

Penemuan ini mengindikasikan lukisan gua bersifat naratif merupakan bagian penting dalam budaya seni manusia awal Indonesia pada masa itu.
