The Great Rock of the Aquane: A masterpiece of Valcamonica recounted (and made consultable) with 21st-century tools.

Andrea Arcà’s The Great Rock of Naquane is a significant contribution to the study of European rock art. Drawing on meticulous archaeological research and innovative digital documentation, the book offers a fresh perspective on one of the most important engraved rock surfaces in the Alps. Arcà not only presents an impressive body of evidence but also develops new interpretative insights into the symbols, narratives, and cultural connections represented in the engravings. Richly illustrated and carefully argued, the volume demonstrates how digital technologies can enhance both the recording and interpretation of archaeological heritage. It will be of great interest to scholars, students, and all readers interested in rock art, Alpine archaeology, and digital approaches to the past.
