You're not alone in this. Pareidolia is very typical for human beings. Even the Upper Palaeolithic artists used pareidolia when creating pictures: Altamira is a cave in northern Spain where have been found a lot of paintings and drawings oft he Upper Palaeolthic. There is no agreement on the dating, probably anytime between 33,600 and 11,000 before Christ.

This face is only seen after going to the end of the cave, and starting back. It looks like a natural feature of the walls, but was known to the painters, and no doubt had great significance. One »eye« of the face has been outlined in black.
