abstract
Slimak et al. challenge the reliability of our oldest (> 65,000 years) U-Th dates on carbonates associated with cave paintings in Spain. They cite a supposed lack of parietal art for the 25,000 years following this date, along with potential methodological issues relating to open-system behavior and corrections to detrital or source water Th-230. We show that their criticisms are unfounded.
