How wrong can Prometheus be???

The majority of you who have seen Prometheus, 2012 film, will have noticed the selection of archaeological sites that were featured upon. Me, an archaeologist, noticed that half the sites didn't exist and one of the cave art that featured was completely wrong! I have personally seen the cave art from Lascaux Cave and know that there is no 'space' combination for another species. The only significant thing is that the cave art may in fact represent astronomical constellations as seen in the Magdalenian Era. 

Does this mean we should go explore?? No of course not!! If films are going to use archaeology, then get it right!!!
