This survey focused on a concentration of 30 eye petroglyphs located within the Rano Raraku statue quarry on Rapa Nui (Easter Island). Although known about these eyes have not previously been surveyed or reported on. The survey considered both the eyes' morphology and their contexts within the quarry, and the implications of these for our understanding of quarrying on the Island. A catalogue of identified eye petroglyphs is included.
An ancient depicted sign language was used to view and translate what are considered "abstract" signs that are found along with more natural animal imagery. Sorry, the first paper was scrambled during conversion to .pdf. It has been replaced with a corrected one.

Corner-notched and Basal-notched projectile point petroglyph images are found in the Coso Range of eastern California. These points are repeatedly depicted in association with composite animal-avian-human petroglyph figures. The points are also portrayed in singular or grouped images, and are most often illustrated as hafted configurations. We argue that these points are symbolic representations of Elko and Humboldt Series dart points dating from the Middle Archaic Period (2000 B.C. to A.D. 1) as represented in the southwestern corner of the Great Basin. Supporting this estimated age are direct measurements of rock art panels using experimental, pXRF (portable x-ray fluorescence measurements) of desert varnish (Lytle et al. 2008). The pXRF dates provide a mean age of 2,750 BP, with a sigma of 20% which calculates to a calendar age of about 3,300 to 2,200 years before present. We explore symbology surrounding animal-avian-human petroglyphs depicted with these types of dart points. Several alternative models help contextualize the petroglyph panels studied, illuminating implied cosmological content and visual metaphor, including gender. We suggest certain parallels and patterns that appear to connect Coso petroglyph panels with later cultures in the American Southwest and Mexico.

ʻPetroglyphs: The Bend of the Boyneʼ predominately explored the hypothesis that many of the panels of artwork found within the Boyne Ensemble, are ʻmapsʼ of the site as it existed during the Neolithic. While that hypothesis was applied to a number of other sites in Ireland, the UK and France, any hypothesis must undergo repeated testing. As such, this paper, which for all intents and purposes is an addendum to ʻPetroglyphs: The Bend of the Boyneʼ, addresses a number of points and observations not previously covered, as well as a number of additional sites, both in Ireland and the UK.

At least since the advent of modern archaeology, archaeologists have proposed numerous interpretations of the petroglyphs found throughout Ireland and the UK, yet none have ever been tested, nor can they ever be tested, and therefore do not meet the criteria of a scientific hypothesis or theory. This paper explores the likelihood that many of the panels of petroglyphs decorating the orthostats and kerbstones at sites such as Knowth, Newgrange and Dowth, simply depict the monuments that were constructed during the Neolithic and Early Bronze Ages. The spatial distribution of the motifs on stones at Knowth, Newgrange and Dowth for example, were a way of drawing in the wider ritual landscape, creating for the community a way of connecting the physical landscape, with the realm of the dead. Though many of the monuments within the Boyne Ensemble are still visible in the landscape, there are hundreds of sites where nothing can be seen, except for the panels that exhibit this enigmatic art, with hundreds more yet to be discovered. With the advances in geo-prospecting technology, and using the probable cartographic information on the panels, undiscovered sites and monuments beckon.

(2014, with E. Kuciewicz & M. Kobusiewicz) Dakhleh Oasis Project, Petroglyph Unit: rock art research 2011Research by the Petroglyph Unit in the 2011 season was concentrated on recording two sites. One was site 6/09 in the Central Oasis, a multicultural site unusually rich in rock panels bearing an abundance of representations of ostriches and of the sandal/foot motif. The other one was Winkler’s site 62 in the Eastern Oasis, mainly of prehistoric provenance, with an exeptional panel depicting seven artful images of anthropomorphic figures.
