Rock Art of the Vindhyas: An Archaeological Survey: The Documentation and Analysis of the Rock Art Of Mirzapur District, Uttar Pradesh
Ajay Pratap
Rock paintings and petroglyphs are a record of human memories. No doubt, this function defines in essence all archaeological objects, yet some objects such as tools, beyond their symbolic value, are clearly fashioned for their utility. How then is rock art, as an object fashioned by human hand, different 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 begin to answer such questions.
