Description

Explore the shifting landscapes of Bohuslan through this specialized archaeological study. Elevated Rock Art: 2 examines how the landscape has changed since the Bronze Age due to shore displacement. For many years, research in Tanum relied on the modern agrarian landscape, often missing the original context of the rock art. This volume addresses those gaps by looking at how environmental changes affect our understanding of Bronze Age society. Republished from the GOTAC Serie B (Gothenburg Archaeological thesis 49), this book provides a deep look into the social and cognitive implications of landscape transformation. It is an essential resource for researchers and students interested in how prehistoric people perceived their world. By studying shore displacement, this work helps correct long-standing misunderstandings in rock art research and offers a clearer view of the ancient Swedish environment.
