The origin of primitive art is an ancient and fashionable topic. A large number of ostrich egg skin beads have been found in Paleolithic sites. These non-practical products are considered to be the most vivid and concrete representatives of the changes in the spiritual field of ancient humans. They are the origin of primitive artistic creation and early records of modern human behavior. This book comprehensively uses archaeological results at home and abroad, taking the ostrich egg skin beads unearthed in my country as an example, to explore the production process and symbolic significance of personal ornaments in the Paleolithic Age, providing an important inspiration for analyzing and explaining the emergence and development of ancient human symbolic behavior and the origin and spread of primitive art.
