Technique and Interpretation in the Archaeology of Rock Art
Part of: Society for American Archaeology 84th Annual Meeting, Albuquerque, NM (2019)
This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "Technique and Interpretation in the Archaeology of Rock Art," at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
The symposium is intended as a setting within which recent archaeologically informed rock art research can be shared. The session encourages papers on research employing innovative instrumental technique, or providing enhanced interpretive insight, or demonstrating successful approaches to preservation. The geographic framework is global and there is no temporal restraint. Additionally, this year the Rock Art Interest Group would like to encourage papers with a strong ethnographic contextualization.
