"Men and women might have had their fingers deliberately chopped off during religious rituals in prehistoric times, according to a new interpretation of palaeolithic cave art."
If they were indeed missing fingers, it is more consistent with my understanding of people that was as a form on punishment, or disease, or accident. Not sure why the article jumped to religious rituals, no evidence was provided to prove that at all.
