From cave paintings to burial rites, humans have always found ways to make sense of conflict through creative expression. This course explores how warriors across history used art, story, sound, and symbol to process combat, preserve memory, and find meaning in the face of violence and loss, and what that long tradition can offer art therapists working with military populations today. Participants are encouraged to share, ask questions, and bring their own clinical experiences into the conversation throughout. This session focuses on Prehistory and Early Civilization, examining the earliest evidence of how humans represented conflict, survival, and communal memory, and how those forms can inform present-day work with service members and veterans.
