A sense of place and time has been the unconscious focus of my adult life. While living in Hawaii I often searched for ancient rock carving sites. These art forms have the ability to convey the mystery, magic and history of previous times. I use human figures, beads and various textiles with similarities to these petroglyphs as a powerful metaphor for my search to find a place that is home

Réinventer l'écriture : De la tradition à la modernité dans l'espace culturel Kongo / Reinventing Writing : From Tradition To Modernity in Kongo Cultural SpaceYambula Mbanzila, Ali 14 December 2018 (has links)
Dans la vaste région couverte par la province du Kongo Central (autrefois Bas-Zaïre, Bas-Congo),en RD-Congo, et en Angola prolifèrent hier et aujourd’hui encore des « traces » gravées oupeintes sur des pierres que le MuKongo, s’il a le courage de sortir du silence imposé par lapolitique coloniale, désignera par « bisono » (écrits) et que la science traditionnelle appelle« pétroglyphe » ou « pictogramme ». Cette science est confrontée au problème de définition dustatut de ces « traces » et à celui de leur signification. Ces problèmes supposent également unautre : comment étudier ces traces ? Un problème de méthode.L’approche sémiotique des écritures, bien qu’elle soit récente, a mis au point des outilsconceptuels et méthodologiques ou des grilles d’analyse permettant de résoudre ces questions etbien d’autres.C’est la problématique abordée dans cette recherche à partir du « pétroglyphe » situé à Mbiongo,près de la Mission protestante de Mukimbungu, dans le secteur de Kasi, territoire de Songololo,dans la province du Kongo Centrale. Au-delà du thème de l’écriture, la thèse pose les jalons d’unenouvelle conception de l’écriture en milieu Kongo fondée sur les traditions culturelles Kongo enconjugaison avec les apports occidentaux exempts de tout ethno-occidentalisme et decolonialisme. / In the vast region covered by the province of Kongo Central (formerly Bas-Zaire, Bas-Congo), DR Congo, and Angola proliferate yesterday and today "traces" engraved or painted on stones called “bisono” (written signs) by every MuKongo, who has the courage to get out of the silence imposed by colonial politics, and that traditional science calls "petroglyph" or "pictogram". This science is confronted with the problem of defining the status of these "traces" and of their meaning. These problems also suppose another : how to study these traces? A problem of method. The semiotic approach to writing, though recent, has developed conceptual and methodological tools or analytical grids to solve these and many other questions. This is the problem addressed in this research from the "petroglyph" located in Mbiongo, near the Protestant Mission Mukimbungu, in the sector of Kasi, territory of Songololo, in the province of Kongo Centrale. Beyond the theme of writing, the thesis lays the groundwork for a new conception of writing in Kongo based on Kongo cultural traditions in conjunction with Western contributions free from all ethno-occidentalism and colonialism.

Petroglyph National Monument Rapid Ethnographic Assessment ProjectEvans, Michael J., Stoffle, Richard W. 09 1900 (has links)
The Petroglyph National Monument Rapid Ethnographic Assessment Project had two primary goals. One was the identification of those American Indian Tribes, Pueblos, and Spanish heritage groups who wanted to participate in a long -term consultation process with the National Park Service about the management of the new Petroglyph National Monument located outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico. The second goal was to document the cultural resource concerns of the Native Americans and the Spanish heritage people, so that protection of these cultural resources could be put into the General Management Plan the National Park Service (NPS) is developing for the Petroglyph National Monument.

Skalní umění severovýchodní Afriky: případová studie skalních maleb z československé koncese v dolní Nubii / The Rock Art of Northeast Africa: a Case Study of Rock Paintings from the Czechoslovak Concession in Lower NubiaSuková, Lenka January 2015 (has links)
Lenka Suková Abstract of Dissertation 1 THE ROCK ART OF NORTHEAST AFRICA: A CASE STUDY OF THE ROCK PAINTINGS FROM THE CZECHOSLOVAK CONCESSION IN LOWER NUBIA Lenka Suková ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION The study I hereby submit as a dissertation is part of my long-term project aimed at a critical evaluation of the rock-art and archaeological evidence gathered in two sections of the Nile Valley in Lower Nubia by the Czechoslovak expedition working in the framework of the UNESCO-organised salvage campaign. The study, published in 2011 as a separate monograph, is concerned only with occurrences of rock paintings and coloured (incrusted) petroglyphs in the two research area. The nine shelters treated herein constitute only 0.64 % in the whole corpus from the Czechoslovak concession predominated by petroglyphs - just as in most of Northeast Africa - of varied themes, styles, and dates. Nevertheless, this painted corpus is a valuable collection that, as opposed to petroglyphs, represents works that were more demanding from the technical point of view and require detailed analysis of technical aspects, is more amenable to stylistic analysis, and, last but not least, the colour scheme itself plays part in interpretation (for instance, in the case of white, probably linen kilts or tunics in two of the shelters - 17 R XIII,...

Hällvoltigörerns baklängesvolt : Ett hopp för framtiden? / The backward somersault of the rock voltigeur, a hope for the future?Söderström, Roger January 2024 (has links)
Syftet med uppsatsen har varit att analysera utformningen och geografiska placering av hällbildsvoltigörer inom Västra Götaland för att förstå den eventuella relation hällvoltigörerna kan ha haft till bronsålderns metallhandelsnätverk. Det primära källmaterialet består av uppgifter om dels bronsvoltigören från Grevensvænge, Själland dels hällbildsvoltigörer i Fornsök och Svenskt Hällristnings Forsknings Arkivs som bilddatabas som kunnat styrkas av dokumentation och verifierats att figuren omfattas av uppsatsens definition av voltigör. De kvantitativa metoder som har använts har huvudsakligen varit för att göra en jämförande analys av de parametrar som ingår i vissa analysteman. Det har inte gått att inom ramarna för en uppsats på denna nivå utläsa något påvisbart samband med metallhandelns handelsvägar. / The purpose of this essay has been to analyze the design and geographical location of rock image voltigeurs within Västra Götaland in order to understand the possible relationship the rock voltigeurs may have had to the Bronze Age metal trade network. The primary source material consists of information about the bronze vaulter from Grevensvænge, Zealand, and the rock image vaulters in Fornsök and the Swedish Rock Art Research Archive as an image database that could be substantiated by documentation and verified that the figure falls within the essay's definition of vault. Quantitative methods that have been used have mainly been to make a comparative analysis of the parameters included in certain analysis themes. It has not been possible to infer any demonstrable relationship with the trade routes of the metal trade within the framework of an essay at this level.

Heiltsuk and Wuikinuxv rock art: applying DStretch to reveal a layered landscape, a case study on the Central Coast, British Columbia, CanadaSkala, Aurora Anne 17 August 2015 (has links)
This archaeological community-engaged research focuses on locating, recording, photographing, and classifying, rock art (pictographs and petroglyphs) designs within Heiltsuk and Wuikinuxv Nations’ territories. The two areas are on the Central Coast of British Columbia, Canada: River’s Inlet/Owikeno Lake (Wuikinuxv Territory, near Oweekeno village), and Roscoe Inlet (Heiltsuk Territory, near Bella Bella). By listening to stories and visiting rock art locations its deep history and significance can begin to be comprehended. Throughout this research 58 rock art sites were visited and over 900 designs were categorized into nine types. Within this context I consider the feasibility and benefits of digital contrast adjustment of photographs using DStretch, a plugin created for ImageJ, that renders visible faint traces of pigment which can not be seen with the naked eye. Additionally, the potential of underwater archaeology (scuba diving) for the discovery and recording of rock art sites is explored. / Graduate / 0324
