The Ajanta Caves in India contain 32 caves carved into basalt rock cliffs over 1,500 years ago. Using only hammers and chisels, skilled craftsmen meticulously cut columns, rooms, and ceilings inside the rock. They decorated the walls and ceilings with colorful paintings depicting realism, depth, and perspective that were ahead of their time in Europe.
