music in ancient times

Early humans knew it had music and songs from the days of old times. Only, it is said the music is not for entertainment, but for purposes related to the living. This interesting fact mentioned by Iegor Reznikoff, an expert on ancient music from the University of Paris X. He mentions that music and singing has been known to humans since the stone age.

In his study results, Iegor mention that about 10000-40000 years ago, humans rock music or song using to detect the new cave. They make noises to know the depth or the condition in their newfound cave. They use the technique of echo of the music it's because light can not penetrate to the torch into the cave, called Iegor which plans to present his findings at the Acoustical Society of America event in Paris.

Iegor findings are based on his analysis because he saw a number of ancient cave wall drawings contained in the French suburbs. These pictures showed activity cavemen show they are making noises. One of the caves that have a lot of old pictures is a cave at Lascaux.

According Iegor Reznikoff, from the echo technique, humans eventually developed a combination of sounds into a harmony. Slowly but surely, these sounds eventually become a habit that makes people happy.

To be sure, there is now the music has undergone many developments. Not only about life, music and even often used as a sedative therapy tool soul. So, have you listened to music today?
