CONFERENCE "ROCK ART AND STATUES-STELES IN THE ALPS"
by Angelo Eugenio Fossati, archaeologist
The rock art of the alpine area is one of the most widespread and ancient iconographic traditions in Europe, which covers a period from the Paleolithic to historical times. It is manifested by engravings, sculptures and paintings made on sheltered rock walls, outdoor outcrops, erratic blocks, statues-steles and statues-menhirs. Although present in almost all the Alpine valleys, it is particularly concentrated in four major regions: Mount Bego, the valley of Aosta and Savoy, Valcamonica-Valtellina. The rock art of the Alps illustrates an exceptional cultural continuity, reflecting the symbolic, spiritual and social memory of Alpine populations from prehistoric times to contemporary times.
