I think it is highy likely that the carvings were quite possibly coloured or enhanced when they were in use. In some places, there is still a tradition of white washing rocks at certain times of year. Such a thing could well have formed part of their ritualistic use. Maybe even additions to the design being added over time. We'll never really know.
