Filiform rock art appears as a spontaneous technique, more simple
and immediate than pecking, good either for autonomous strands of
expression, or for sketches and first drafts regarding works of
painting or pecking. According to the order of presentation of the
session's papers during the XVII IUPPS (UISPP) Conference in
Burgos, the articles published here are the following: Late
prehistoric incised rock art in southern Europe: a contribution for
its typology, by Fernando A. Coimbra, where the author presents a
preliminary typology of this kind of rock art, divided in two
groups (geometric and figurative), approaching not only common
themes to several countries, but also some examples that have only
a regional character; Filiform rock art in mount Bego (Tende,
Maritime Alps, France), by Nicoletta Bianchi, which analyses some
cases where pecked carvings overlap filiforms, therefore pre-dating
pecked engravings and studies the interaction of the two carvings
tradition; Filiform figures in the rock art of Valcamonica from
Prehistory to the Roman age, by Umberto Sansoni, Cinzia Bettineschi
and Silvana Gavaldo, that provides a general corpus of the
figurative incised rock art of Valcamonica with a quantitative and
qualitative approach, by considering the typological variety, the
long-lasting chronological dating and the strong relation with the
local pecked rock art of the Camunian filiforms; Threadlike
engravings of historical period on the rocks and plaster of
churches and civic buildings. Some comparisons and proposals of
interpretation, by Federico Troletti, which presents the incised
engravings exclusively of historical time located in some sites of
Valcamonica - the area of Campanine di Cimbergo and Monticolo di
Darfo; The rock art from Figueiredo (Serta, Portugal): typology,
parallels and chronology, by Fernando A. Coimbra and Sara Garces,
focusing vi on the description of the engravings from three carved
rocks with incised motives from the place of Figueiredo, in central
Portugal, which were studied during different fieldworks. Two other
papers of researchers that couldn't attend the Conference were also
presented: The filiform rock art from Kosovo, by Shemsi Krasniqi,
which presents recent findings from Kosovo with a similar typology
of figures from other European countries; The filiform rock
engravings of the Parete Manzi of Montelapiano (Chieti, Italy), by
Tomaso Di Fraia, which analyses the problematic of incised rock art
from a rock shelter in the centre of Italy.
