Routledge - The Prehistoric Rock Art of Portugal Book

Explore the ancient history of the western Atlantic Europe through The Prehistoric Rock Art of Portugal. Published by Routledge, this book provides significant interpretive perspectives on Portuguese rock art research. It offers a clear representation of core rock art areas and integrates current thinking and modern interpretations of these ancient sites. Unlike other regions where ethnographical studies lead the way, the western Iberian Peninsula lacks an ethnographical or ethno-historical past. This work addresses that distinction by delivering a personal approach to the many issues, themes, and methods found within the rock art of this unique region. It is an essential resource for those studying the symbols of animals and objects left behind by prehistoric cultures.
