An international groups website about prehistoric open-air abstract rock art in the UK. The link "Rock Art in the British Isles", posted by 'fitzcoraldo' (thanks!) on 25th August 2002, refers to the same website but the link is dead. So why not try this fresh one about these mysterious 'images of a lost message'? We hope to see you soon! And.....room enough for new members in 2003.
