The book aims to reveal the symbolic basis behind much of the rock art imagery of Central Asia (particularly that in Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan with reference to adjacent countries) through the prism of the diversity of ethnic, religious and economic traditions that provided the dynamic interactions throughout the history of this region. It starts with a short introduction to the archaeology, the preceding scholarship and the earliest rock art. Then it moves to the times of the Indo-European migrations, developing new insight into the symbolism of petroglyphs through the Indo-Iranian cosmology and cosmogony. Part three discuses the art of Iranian-Turkic "Early Nomads". Finally, the author analyses the problem of persistence of ancient art and symbolic traditions in new contexts with references to Navruz rites, interactions between shamanism and mystical Islam, and the symbolism of landscape.

The phenomenon is a conspicuous one, and has considerable significance for two reasons. On the one hand, the study of such pastoral graffiti may convey fresh ethnoarchaeological information as to the circumstances of the pastoral activities and the pastoral economy of the past. On the other hand, these signs, which can be often fully alphabetic as well as drawing upon ancient symbolic repertoires, can be of some aid in the interpretation of rock art as a whole genre of human expression, and projected back, in their significance and their modes of appearance, the earliest times of prehistory.\par\pard\f1\fs17\par}

This book offers an overview of iconographic methods and their application to archaeological analysis. It offers a truly interdisciplinary approach that draws equally from art history and anthropology. Vernon James Knight, Jr., begins with a historigraphical overview, addressing the methodologies and theories that underpin both archaeology and art history. He then demonstrates how iconographic methods can be integrated with the scientific methods that are at the core of much archaeological inquiry. Focusing on artifacts from the pre-Columbian civilizations of North and Meso-American sites, Knight shows how the use of iconographic analysis yields new insights into these objects and civilizations.
