Colorado Springs Gazette (Newspaper) - October 11, 2003, Colorado Springs, Colorado Saturday october la 2003 the Gazette a17health amp science lefty trait traced to Han prints left in ancient caves the Dallas morning news Dallas a prehistoric shamans used to Mark the transition from real world to spirit world anthropologists think when they blew pigments around their hands onto Cave Walls. These Han prints which still Dot european caves More than 10,000 years later now serve a less ethereal purpose a telling scientists How Many of those shamans were left handed. Research shows the frequency of left handed painters a 23 percent a is the same today As it was then. The work is a look at How left handedness has persisted for millennia said Charlotte Faurie the French graduate student who did the research. It suggests being a lefty has no evolutionary drawbacks As some scientists think. Older evidence that suggests lefties were at work almost As soon As Homo Sapiens arose Wear Marks on Stone artefacts could suggest the presence of southpaws 200,000 years ago. Neanderthals had their share of lefties. Some of their fossilized Teeth carry telltale Marks that indicate left handed eating practices Faurie said. Such evidence is rare however and does no to allow scientists to estimate the frequency of left handedness. That a Why Faurie turned to a database from Marc Groenen of the free University of Brussels of prehistoric Han prints. In caves stretching across France and Spain Groenen identified 507 a negative hands a in which pigment was splattered around a hand with paint blown through a tube or spitting or dabbing the paint.

More common than positive Han prints in which the Palm was painted and pressed against a surface Groenen said. Through careful measurements Groenen often could identify the age and gender of the person who made the negative Han print. In 343 cases he could determine the dominant hand of the artist a somebody holding the pigment tube in his or her left hand presumably would have made the imprint of a right hand. Groenen found 79 of the prints were of right negative hands suggesting 23 percent of the Cave artists were left handed. Faurie thinks the european caves represent a fair sampling of the number of lefties Back then. Some of the Han prints Are Large and some Are Small. Others Are higher or lower on the Wall. A maybe some hands Are from the same artist a she said. A but we Are sure that it is at least Many she decided to test the Cave painting numbers against the experience of students at her University Frances University of Montpellier ii. First she gave students an Ink blowing pen and asked them to outline one hand on a piece of paper taped to a Wall. Next she had them pick up a Ball from a table and throw it at a target across the room. Finally she asked them to identify with which hand they normally wrote. As in the Cave paintings 23 percent of the students held the Ink blowing pen with their left hand and created a right negative hand Faurie and her adviser Michel Raymond report in an upcoming Issue of biology letters.
