* 1.5.3.2 THE ROCK ART OF THE WESTERN ZONE AT ETNE *
Although there are only six rock art sites in this area, they are
strikingly different. First of all, a remarkable division can be noted.
All sites in the north of the western zone could be classified as
complex sites, whereas sites in the south part comprise simple cupules
only (Fig. 105).
* 1.5.3.2.1 At Haugen there is a large boulder with eleven single
cupules overlooking the fjord, and further inland, at Tesdal, there have
been reported two other boulders with cupules, one also having four
connecting grooves (Mandt Larsen 1972). Both rocks could not be
traced in the jumble of boulders during the survey and local people
hardly could remember anything about their existence, let alone their
positions. The Tesdal sites command a fine view of the inland fresh
water lake of Litledal. These cupule sites probably are very old.
