Abstract

The contributions to the present volume are concerned with landscape, and therefore with many aspects of the spatial order of rock-art as it is distributed at large and small scales across the face of the earth. But it is a small step from that dimension of space to another archaeological fundamental, the dimension of time. In the Alpine region, as in so many places with rock-art, human experience and use of landscape are shaped by seasonality.
