The Permian sandstone holds a rich tapestry of ancient art and cultural significance. CAMUNI Rock n. 23 showcases a mesmerizing figure of a four-wheeled carriage, elegantly drawn by horses, etched onto the enduring surface of this sandstone. Petroglyphs on Permian sandstone reveal the mastery of the CAMUNI people in capturing various scenes from their daily lives. From depictions of quadrupedal figures engaged in duels to hunting scenes that come alive with action and precision, these petroglyphs offer glimpses into an era long gone. Amongst the intricate engravings are images portraying animals alongside human figures armed with spears, residing within village buildings carved onto the Permian sandstone canvas. The warrior's prowess is immortalized as he stands tall with spear in hand while his loyal canine companion accompanies him faithfully. One particularly captivating image portrays a majestic figure adorned with deer antlers on his head - believed to be none other than Cernunnos, the god himself. This awe-inspiring depiction pays homage to ancient beliefs and rituals that were deeply ingrained in CAMUNI culture. The technique employed by these skilled artists involved using hammers to create small circular concavities on the rocky surface – an arduous process that required patience and precision. A maze-like pattern emerges amidst petroglyphs depicting waterbirds gracefully navigating through its twists and turns while dueling figures engage in fierce combat atop Naquane's Great Rock. These carvings provide insight into both architectural wonders like village buildings as well as social dynamics amongst tribesmen. Intriguingly, Capotribu takes center stage among human figures accompanied by headstock instruments; together they form harmonious melodies echoing through time itself. Hunting scenes capture moments frozen forever on this remarkable stone canvas - testament to our ancestors' perseverance and resourcefulness.
