The practice of religion has been since the time of Adam. The angels asked Adam why he was praying and he replied "I know not but the Lord commanded me to do so". Man has the desire to worship something from the most lowly tribesman to the most educated of men. It may be some God or some material object.

Religion appears to have been practised in Europe for at least 30,000 years. Richard Leakey (The Origin of Humankind) says that archaeologists can often come to an informed opinion as to the purpose of cave art by studying the art itself and the placement in the cave. He describes elaborate cave art produced in Europe up to 30,000 years ago, that shows evidence of religious practice. Fossils of early man have also been found ritually buried, providing further evidence of religious activity.
