Just a reminder, that possibly the oldest piece of palaeoart dates to the Neolithic. The petroglyphs of horned characters with trumpets, recorded on the same rock as a ornithischian footprints (Zagaje Formation) in Poland, might be an early reconstruction of the Jurassic tracemaker.

Happy Wszystkich Świętych, All Hallows Day, celebrated in Poland. One of my favourite celebrations, remembering these who have passed by decorating graves and lighting up znicze (a glass lantern)
