The Cosquer Cave, located in Cap Morgiou, Marseille, France, is situated about 37 meters (121 feet) below sea level, and its entrance lies about 37 meters (121 feet) underwater. There are paintings there that are dated before 37,000 years ago. This underwater entrance suggests that the sea level was significantly lower during the time the cave was inhabited by prehistoric humans, allowing access to the cave without diving equipment. The caves were submerged around 10,000-12,000 years ago after the glacial ice melted, resulting in rising sea levels that covered the entrance. The caves have been inaccessible since they were submerged, and the paintings unseen since before they were submerged. They are completely inaccessible since they were submerged many thousands of years ago. They are only accessible today by those with modern diving equipment. Its submarine entrance was discovered in 1985 by Henri Cosquer, a professional diver. The underwater passage leading to the cave was progressively explored until 1990 by cave divers without the divers being aware of the archaeological character of the cave.
The cave contains around 600 paintings and engravings, which are predominantly of animals such as horses, bison, ibex, and seals, as well as numerous hand stencils. These artworks provide valuable insights into the lives and beliefs of the people who inhabited the region during the Upper Paleolithic period.
As a believer in theistic evolution, I see this as evidence of the existence of "earth man" before the creation of Adam and Eve (6000-10000 thousand years ago). These beings evolved from the beasts created on day 6 and were "updated" by the Gods in Gen 1:26. This all happened before Adam. Also, ancient ruins like Göbekli Tepe (Turkey 11000 - 13000 years ago), Jerf el-Ahmar (Syria 10000 - 12000 years ago) provide more evidence. Other sites have evidence of man-made tools and humans living over 2 million years ago.
All this is evidence of old Earth, a pre-Adamic race of humans, and Theistic Evolution.
