Zambia's ancient rock art

the long version

This book forms part of a programme to show the richness of Zambia’s rock art heritage. Despite published reports stretching back nearly a century, Zambian rock art remains little known and poorly studied. Recent research in Northern Province has revealed over 700 rock art sites in Kasama District alone; that is nearly twice the number previously known from the whole of Zambia. Further work in other areas will undoubtedly bring about more and important findings. This book is intended to provide the reader with an overview of our current understanding of Zambia’s ancient rock pictures and to inform about important new findings from Kasama District.
