"The subject matter of the San marcos Pass paintings is familiar. The simple geometrics--paralell lines, zigzaga, circles, dots, and grids--form the basis of art from the beginnings of human history. Some say these elements arise from experiences with altered states of consciousness. Deer, fish, birds, insects, amphibians, and humans appear in abstract and naturalistic forms. Others defy neat explanation." Description from the Introduction page 1.

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.
