Post-Palaeolithic Anthropomorphic Representations in Romania Rock Art

Post-Palaeolithic anthropomorphic representations are one of the relatively frequent subjects encountered in Romanian rock art, especially after the discovery of sites following recent research. If we were to refer to rock art in Europe, where there are extensive regions with numerous concentrated sites, such as the Levantine or Scandinavian areas, in Romania, only the north of Gorj might stand out ; here, several sites have been identified in caves or on gorge walls, such as those of the Olteț or Sohodol. In this study, we have only referred to the anthropomorphic representations, attempting to establish some analogies with European post-Palaeolithic rock art and maybe to specify the possible relative age of some of them, as well as a significance better anchored to interpretations from other areas.
