Rock art research: new digital recording methods and recently developed theoretical approaches

Mar 19, 2024 - Mar 20, 2024

Workshop zu neuen digitalen Methoden, Datenanalyse und theoretische Ansätze in der Forschung.

Rock art research is one of the areas in which digital methods have found great acceptance and applications during the last decade. For this reason, there is a steady development of new digital methods not only in the realm of digital recording but also for data analysis and interpretation, often accompanied by new theoretical approaches. This workshop is intended to bring together rock art researchers who share an interest or have made contributions to this field of rock art research.
