Painting began long before any recorded history, so it is impossible to know who exactly was the first person to paint. The oldest known cave painting is 35,000 years old in Chauvet Cave. Archaeologists discovered tools for making an ochre-based substance that were 100,000 years old in South Africa, but it is unclear if this substance was used as paint or as glue. Even so, there is no evidence to suggest that the inhabitants of the Chauvet Cave or the cave in South Africa invented painting, just that it was invented by that time.
