"The hand on the rock is a profound image, and means so much more to them at that time (or is it just my imagination?!) than a fingerprint taken today. "

To me that image always said: "I am me. I am here."

It really is the same as "Ug woz ere". The drawings of animals around them do not mean a sense of 'one' - they could still represent a sense of 'tribe' - but that hand goes so much further.

Alternatively it could be the result of a practical joke. Artist one takes a fag break and leans against wall. Apprentice walks through and throws paint at him, misses and hits the wall.
