Marcadores gráficos y territorios megalíticos en la Cuenca interior del Tajo : Toledo, Madrid y Guadalajara /
:
The aim of this work is to analyse Late Prehistoric graphical markers, comprising paintings, engravings, Megalithic elements, and other portable objects. The Tajo inner basin (Spain), was chosen for this study due to the lack of scholarship on the subject and the lack of geographical information available for the archaeological sites.

:
This volume presents the proceedings of Session XXVIII-4 of the XVIII UISPP World Congress (4-9 June 2018, Paris, France), 'Caractérisation, Continuités et Discontinuités des Manifestations Graphiques des Sociétés Préhistoriques.' Papers address the question of exchange and mobility in prehistoric societies in relation to the evolution of their environments through the prism of their graphic productions, on objects or on walls. This volume offers the opportunity to question their symbolic behaviours within very diverse temporal, chrono-cultural or geographic contexts. It also provides the framework for a discussion on cultural identity and how this was asserted in the face of environmental or social changes or constraints.

Barbaric splendour : the use of image before and after Rome /
:
This text comprises a collection of essays comparing late Iron Age and Early Medieval art. Fundamentally, the work asks what making images meant on the fringe of the expanding or contracting Roman empire, particularly as the art from both periods drew heavily from - but radically transformed - imperial imagery.

Prehistoric art as prehistoric culture : studies in honour of Professor Rodrigo de Balbín-Behrmann /
:
Professor Rodrigo de Balbín has played a major role in advancing our knowledge of Palaeolithic art, and the occasion of his retirement provides an excellent opportunity to assess the value of prehistoric art studies as a factor in the study of the culture of those human groups which produced this imagery. The diverse papers in this volume, published in Professor de Balbín's honour, cover a wide variety of the decorated caves which traditionally defined Palaeolithic art, as well as the open-air art of the period, a subject in which he has done pioneering work at Siega Verde and elsewhere. The result is a new and more realistic assessment of the social and symbolic framework of human groups from 40,000 BP onwards.

How does rock art as an object fashioned by human hands then differ from tools? What utility does it have beyond its symbolic value? The Vindhyan corpus of rock paintings has provided us with a very valuable opportunity to be answering such questions.
