ART : PETROGLYPHS / CAVE ART / ROCK ART / PETROGRAPHS
Collection by FOSTERGINGER
Petroglyphs are images created by removing part of a rock surface by incising, picking, carving, or abrading, as a form of rock art. Petroglyphs are found world-wide, and are often associated with prehistoric peoples. The term petroglyph should not be confused with petrograph, which is an image drawn or painted on a rock face. Both types of image belong to the wider and more general category of rock artor parietal art. Petroforms, or patterns and shapes made by many large rocks and boulders over the ground, are also quite different.
