Prehistoric rock art is the markings paintings, engravings, or
pecked images left on rocks or cave walls by ancient peoples. In
this book, Paul G. Bahn provides a richly illustrated overview of
prehistoric rock art and cave art from around the world.
Summarizing the recent advances in our understanding of this
extraordinary visual record, he discusses new discoveries, new
approaches to recording and interpretation, and current problems in
conservation. Bahn focuses in particular on current issues in the
interpretation of rock art, notably the shamanic interpretation
that has been influential in recent years and that he refutes. This
book is based on the Rhind Lectures that the author delivered for
the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland in 2006."
