I just find it strange that Rowtor is full of "art" and it's neighbour just a couple of hundred yards away apparently has nothing, Eyre did live by the bottom or Row-tor, very conveniently for him. Derbys. hasn't got a lot of rock art; it only occurs in a few places, as far as I know. Rowtor is hardly full of the stuff, and there's only one motif which could be described as prominent. There is a nice little group of classic cup and rings which really look genuine. Is there another example anywhere which the rev could have got inspiration from? I think they must be prehistoric. The only doubt that could cross my mind is the case of the cross within the circle. Reply | with quote |  15th December 2009ce 22:52 In reply to: Re: Rowtor Rocks, it's all fake (megadread) |
