Blood may have helped ancient Chinese rock art survive for 2,000 years
Ancient paintings on limestone cliffs in southern China have survived more than 2,000 years of heat, rain, and storms. A new study suggests their unusual durability came from a paint binder made from lime and blood...

This one is old and therefor a bit hard to see from certain angles. I can say it is old because it has brown desert varnish developing on it--and that process takes hundreds of years. I think the older #Petroglyphs in this area have been dated to ~800 years ago.
That said it is spectacular! It shows a humanoid form with a great winged headdress or helmet.

New rock art from Arnhem Land adds 16 depictions of thylacines and Tasmanian devils — some possibly under 1,000 years old.
