Abstract

Engraved rocks can be considered as the earliest artistic manifestations. According to estimations, this art is to date back to more than three thousand years ago and has a long history in Iran. This article presents and examines this art in ARASBARAN-Soungoun. In this region, hundreds of carved and sketched drawings and figures on rocks and in subterranean shelters were found and probed. Not only the drawings and figures but also the diversity of the motifs and images (of animals, humans, symbols etc.) is of great significance. An anthropological study of these motifs would reveal remarkable information about the situation and the limits of the cultural domains, about the cultural relations and the process of cultural diffusion in the prehistoric era at the intersection of ANATOLIA, CAUCASUS, ZAGROS and central plateau of Iran.
