Rock Art and Aliens

Summary

Some archaeologists remember reading articles which link rock art with alien or extraterrestrial visitors to earth. However, an examination of English language newspapers suggests that although rock art is a popular topic, the extraterrestrial connection is less commonly made. The World Wide Web, however, is full of entries which eagerly make this connection. There appears to be a niche audience which will believe what it wants to believe.
