The hidden animals were revealed on cave walls in Spain with 'Magic Eye'-style techniques.
Using an unconventional, centuries-old method, researchers have identified hidden animal figures on the walls of a cave in Spain. The technique, called stereoscopic photography, dates back to the early 1800s but is perhaps best known for its use in the View-Master, the pre-VR viewer beloved by generations of kids.
A new study, published Aug. 17 in the journal Antiquity, changes how archaeologists view cave paintings, with stereoscopic photographs of art from the cave of La Pasiega in north-central Spain. The horses are easily viewed in high-resolution images that the researchers posted to Flickr. The digitally enhanced images reveal a horse below the deer image in the center, as well as the mane, neck and chest of another horse on the left. This latter horse is situated so that its head rests in a concave area of the cave wall, while the chest is in a convex area, enhancing the three-dimensionality of the animal.
