932.0. "Simak's Grotto of the Dancing Deer" by SUPER::ROUNDS (Kristin Rounds, DTN 381-1066) Thu Nov 15 1990 13:36

More than ten years ago, I read a short story by Clifford Simak in 
_Analog_.  It was about an archaeological dig at a Cro-Magnon-type 
site in (I think) France, and it turned out that one of the diggers 
was a deathless type who had actually been one of the people who did 
the paintings they were uncovering.  Sounds tacky, but it was really 
a very haunting story.

I'd love to get a copy of that story to add to my collection of Simak 
stuff.  Does anybody remember it/have a copy of the issue of Analog 
[that I can borrow] that it is in?

Thanks!

    Emphatic yes. Read "Way Station" - I think I reviewed it here a long
    time ago.
