Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia has one of the largest inventories of rock art in the world with pictographs and petroglyphs found almost anywhere that has suitable rock surfaces – in rock shelters and caves, on boulders and rock platforms. First Nations people have been marking these places with figurative imagery, abstract designs, stencils and prints for tens of thousands of years, often engaging with earlier rock markings. The art reflects and expresses changing experiences within landscapes over time, spirituality, history, law and lore, as well as relationships between individuals and groups of people, plants, animals, land and Ancestral Beings that are said to have created the world, including some rock art. Since the late 1700s, people arriving in Australia have been fascinated with the rock art they encountered, with detailed studies commencing in the late 1800s. Through the 1900s an impressive body of research on Australian rock art was undertaken, with dedicated academic study using archaeological methods employed since the late 1940s. Since then, Australian rock art has been researched from various perspectives, including that of Traditional Owners, custodians and other community members. Through the 1900s, there was also growing interest in Australian rock art from researchers across the globe, leading many to visit or migrate to Australia to undertake rock art research. In this volume, the varied histories of Australian rock art research from different parts of the country are explored not only in terms of key researchers, developments and changes over time, but also the crucial role of First Nations people themselves in investigations of this key component of their living heritage.

Book Synopsis Global Perspectives for the Conservation and Management of Open-Air Rock Art Sites by : António Batarda Fernandes
Download or read book Global Perspectives for the Conservation and Management of Open-Air Rock Art Sites written by António Batarda Fernandes and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-07-29 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Perspectives for the Conservation and Management of Open-Air Rock Art Sites responds to the growth in known rock art sites across the globe and addresses the need to investigate natural and human-originated threats to them as well as propose solutions to mitigate resulting deterioration. Bringing together perspectives of international research teams from across five continents, the chapters in this book are divided into four discrete parts that best reflect the worldwide scenarios where conservation and management of open-air rock art sites unfolds: 1) ethics, community and collaborative approaches; 2) methodological tools to support assessment and monitoring; 3) scientific examination and interventions; and 4) global community and collaborative case studies innovating methodologies for ongoing monitoring and management. The diverse origin of contributions results in a holistic and interdisciplinary approach that conciliates perceived intervention necessity, community and stakeholders’ interests, and rigorous scientific analysis regarding open-air rock art conservation and management. The book unites the voices of the global community in tackling a significant challenge: to ensure a better future for open-air rock art. Moving conservation and management of open-air rock art sites in from the periphery of conservation science, this volume is an indispensable guide for archaeologists, conservators and heritage professionals involved in rock art and its preservation.

Book Synopsis Explorations of Variability in Australian Prehistoric Rock Engravings by : Natalie R. Franklin
Download or read book Explorations of Variability in Australian Prehistoric Rock Engravings written by Natalie R. Franklin and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2004 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets out to increase the archaeological usefulness of rock art by exploring the degree of spatial variation within a particular corpus of Australian prehistoric rock engravings labelled the "Panaramitee style". Spatial variation within the Panaramitee is explored using correspondence analysis and cluster analysis of motif proportions between sites, coefficients of diversity and presence/absence of motifs. A master typology was established, and counts of motifs were made at sites across the continent. It was found that there was both inter- and intra-regional variation in terms of differing emphases on motifs within an overall restricted range across the continent. The comparative homogeneity and widespread distribution of the Panaramitee corresponded with the possible function of the art to cement social networks between widely dispersed groups. The use of nonfigurative motifs in symbolic systems also helps to explain the persistence of an overall pattern of similarity over a prolonged period of time.
