Nice to see discoveries like this by dedicated avocational paleontologists! Who would think to look on the ceiling of caves for ancient footprints?

I’ve heard of a site in Australia which is the same way but with dinosaur tracks, but personally I’d rather discover human tracks!  Thanks for sharing!
