| 500 | _aRock art refers to paintings and engravings found on the surfaces of rock shelters and caves. The art forms executed usually tend to show animals and their hunting scenes. In other cases human figures drawn in a series are shown in dancing modes. While in some other cases one can see such activities as honey collection, fishing or even grinding cereals. Besides these, palm prints constitute another common depiction. Rock art evidences are known from almost all over the world. Some of these may be 20,000 to 30,000 years old while there are others which are as young as 600-800 years. The continuity of the human urge to paint or engrave is not only culturally very significant but it also shows consistent behaviour of man in time and space. In India we find a continuing folk tradition of executing art. These are connected with complex series of rituals and are supported by oral traditions. | ||
