I didn't say that rock art was figurative just that my piece had a figurative element upon it. 'Natural erosion'. The other figurative rock art that I can recall is the foot on the stone in the Liverpool park. I think there are other examples too. Under the Passage Grave Art heading.


Poof Farm cist cover and the Cochno Stone , now under a metre of earth , also have footprints . More common in Scandnavia . In some cultures the foot represents the sun .And there are also the various mace heads , daggers found in , usually , funerary contexts .
