Early Humans
The light didn't only make it possible to see the images, it also created a flicker that was used by the primitive man to make it look like the images were moving. The primitive man might have used this painting for a variety of reasons, spanning from religion, to documenting history, to tell stories to others and using it as a source of entertainment. The two techniques used were juxtaposition(painting in sequence of images) and superimposition(painting one image on top of another) of the images. I think they painted these images to tell stories to others about big hunts, or crazy experiences happening in the wild.
