The time scale is all wrong, but this is notably similar to what we would
expect of pre-migdal culture.

    Big Think

    Did ancient cave artists share a global language?
    The same 32 symbols show up in prehistoric European cave art.

     * Many of these symbols are found in caves in Africa, Asia, Australia
       and America as well.

     * At least 40,000 years old, the set of symbols may have been a
       universal communications tool.

     * Among these symbols is the iconic hashtag.

Is seems all over the world, the symbols alongside the pictures of cave
art is surprisingly consistent. At the URL, there is a map of the world,
showing which symbols were found in cave art where. Along with theories
as to why.

Tir'u baTov!
