Graffiti and cave paintings are similar because they both have a message the artist was trying to get across. Graffiti can be words or distorted images. Cave paintings are usually images meaning something or telling a story. This cave painting tells of a Native American tribe fighting men with guns, who are most likely the European imagrants trying to take over the land and enslave the Native Americans. Cave paintings have a deep meaning and when a person looks at them they can almost always assume what the painting means. Were as when you look at graffiti images you are often left wondering what does that mean? 
Graffiti images are made up of local gangs tagging buildings, teens writing their names, or that of a mate. On the outskirts of Watertown there's a rock formation called Rattle Snake Mountain where teenagers scurry the mountain and spray paint 'Sean & Susan 4ever' for example. Graffiti like that is especially rememerable because it's there until Susan grows old and she can always drive by the mountain remembering when Sean was alive and all the fun they had.
