Altamira cave paintings re-open to selected guests
The cave of Altamira, famous for its prehistoric rock paintings, was closed to the public in 2002 over the threat of damage to the works by the public. But now five randomly selected visitors each week are being allowed in. Archeologist Dr Paul Bahn has been there several times.
