3. RA_PETR_TG_0386 RA_PETR_TG_0386 cattle; herding scenes Detail of large figure with raised arm, overlaying contoured, walking bovid. Quality of pecking and overlaid position suggests that the figure and dog were executed later than the bovid, creating a de...

4. RA_PETR_TG_0387 RA_PETR_TG_0387 elk Head of an unfinished elk executed with deep, coarse pecking and completely repatinated. On horizontal center of large outcropping.

5. RA_PETR_TG_0388 RA_PETR_TG_0388 elk; predation scenes Large, unfinished elk with large antlers; deep, course pecking. The elk is overlaid by an inverted, small elk attacked by a predator; and the person who pecked that group elongated the large elk's antlers....

6. RA_PETR_TG_0389 RA_PETR_TG_0389 elk Detail of RA_PETR_TG_0388, showing the way in which the small animal was pecked over the large elk and the differences between the large and small elk in pecking quality and patina.

7. RA_PETR_TG_0390 RA_PETR_TG_0390 elk; deer Small, vital elk with large antlers; dense, re-patinated pecking. Contrast fine, indirect pecking of the elk with the cruder, direct execution of the more recent goat on the right. Flat, scraped bedrock....

11. RA_PETR_TG_0394 RA_PETR_TG_0394 hunters Small hunter on vertical, cracking surface. The hat, daluur, and clothing of the figure indicates a Bronze Age date; but the light patina indicates how the process of redarkening can be quite delayed on...

12. RA_PETR_TG_0395 RA_PETR_TG_0395 horses; yaks Detail of larger section at edge of outcrop, with fine confronting horse and yak. Like the hunter in RA_PETR_TG_0394, these vertically placed images demonstrate delayed re-patination.

13. RA_PETR_TG_0396 RA_PETR_TG_0396 ibex Fine re-patinated ibex on small stone fragment.

14. RA_PETR_TG_0397 RA_PETR_TG_0397 horned figures; horses On high, deeply abraded horizontal surface, two, possibly horned, figures, head of an unfinished (?) horse, and variety of other elements.

19. RA_PETR_TG_0401 RA_PETR_TG_0401 bulls; yaks Fine bull or yak with lowered head and round horns on cracked and abraded outcrop. Uneven coloration reflects the transitional process of re-patination and is typical of images from this period.
