L'arte rupestre dell'età dei metalli nella penisola Italiana : localizzazione dei siti in rapporto al territorio, simbologie e possibilità interpretative /
:
This work presents the proceedings of the conference 'L'arte rupestre dell'età dei metalli nella penisola Italiana: localizzazione dei siti in rapporto al territorio, simbologie e possibilità interpretative' that took place in Pisa at the Cantiere delle Navi di Pisa under the aegis of the Soprintendenza Archeologica della Toscana and of the University of Pisa on 15th June 2015. The addressed issues were related to the Post-Pleistocene rock art along the Apennine ridge; in recent years more and more evidence has been identified, which is different from the magnificent evidence found in the Alps such as, for example, the well-known Monte Bego and Val Camonica.

Narratives and journeys in rock art : a reader /
:
Why publish a reader? Today, it is relatively easy and convenient to switch on your computer and download an academic paper. However, as many scholars have experienced, historic references are difficult to access. Moreover, some are now lost and are merely references in later papers. This can be frustrating. This text provides a series of papers from all over the world that extend as far back as the 1970s when rock art research was in its infancy. The papers presented in the reader reflect the development in the various approaches that have influenced advancing scholarly research.
