Its main objectives are: investigation and recording of rock paintings and petroglyphs, protection and conservation of rock art sites, as well as publication of scientific reports and education of the general public. SIARB has registered more than 1,000 sites in all departments of the country though mainly in the Andean region. Rock art in Bolivia has a very long tradition, apparently beginning in the Archaic, and continued up to the Colonial and Republican periods. Numerous sites are still worshipped by present-day indigenous people who regard them as sacred places, make offerings and perform rites there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In SIARB projects, recording of sites by rock art experts, investigation\nby professional archaeologists, conservation and administration, as well as\npublic education programs are equally important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SIARB is a founding member of the International Federation of Rock Art Organization (IFRAO) and maintains contact with many international investigators and institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SIARB\u2019s<strong>&nbsp;Board of Directors<\/strong>&nbsp;consists of: President, Lic.
