<nio-img1.html> From the very beginning of the XVII th century the cave
was of great interest for tourists who left numerous traces on its
walls. People, visited the cave, did not imagine that the paintings of
the "Salon Noire" <nio-img2.html> were so old. Only in 1906 thanks to
captain Molar and his sons who made a plan of the cave and discovered
the paintings of the "Salon Noire". Niaux attracted the specialists'
attention. In 1907 it was investigated by H. <nio-img3.html> Breuill
<../person/breuil.html> and E.Cartailhac. But discovery of the "Salon
Noire" paintings was only the beginning. In 1925 J. Mandeman found a
gallery with some black paintings and called it Cartailhac Gallery.
Later it was established that the paintings had been emerging on the
cave walls during a long period between 11500 and 10500 years BC.
