Cupmarks are the most common form of rock art in Sweden, yet it has not been studied as much as the figurative rock art. To understand all the rock art from the Bronze Age in Scandinavia, we need to understand the cupmarks. This essay discusses the differences between different cupmark sites and their number of cup marks by comparing their relation to close-by graves and agricultural fields. It also discusses if an excavation can say anything about the cupmark place and its number. The results of this essay showed that no differences could be made between cup mark sites with many cupmarks and those with few, but three different contexts could be made with the help of studying the excavation reports.
