Answer:

C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wall paintings of the caves are famous for their paintings which contain the only largest image which has been found till now, It also contains abstract signs which have not been deciphered. The caves contain more than 1900 images, most of which are animals. The remaining images are of geometric symbols.
