Thanks for dropping in So far, the data seems to be ceisnstont with Homo Hiedelbergensis (the proposed ancestors of both Homosapiens and Neanderthals). The age of the pattern (circa 350,000 years ago from ochre mine occupation) is ceisnstont with the time frame that the brain in Homo Hiedelbergensis showed a sudden increase in the regions associated with navigation, pattern recognition and mathematics this seems very significant.Regarding a name .one possibility is the Titans of Greek legends. Atlantis may also have made the map, but the primary argument against this is their civilization is already marked by the map.
