Summary

Research reveals that two anthropomorphic petroglyphs from the Chichictara rock landscape in Palpa, Peru, may represent early antecedents of iconographic motifs found in Paracas and Nasca art. This discovery is significant because such direct links between rupestrian art and other media are rare in Peru, highlighting the exceptional value of these petrogravings. The study employs comparative analysis to trace the evolutionary sequence of these designs across different artistic mediums, including embroidery and pottery, providing new insights into the continuity and development of Andean rock art traditions.
