SIARB: organization to investigate\nthe rock art of South America<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The Bolivian Rock Art Research Society SIARB (Sociedad de Investigaci\u00f3n del Arte Rupestre de Bolivia)<\/strong> was founded in January 1987. 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

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

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

SIARB\u2019s Board of Directors<\/strong> consists of: President, Lic. Freddy Taboada (La Paz) \u2013 Secretary, Dr. Claudia Rivera (La Paz) \u2013 Treasurer, Lic. Pilar Lima (La Paz) \u2013Editor, Matthias Strecker (La Paz) \u2013  regional representatives and collaborators in the departments of Potos\u00ed, Oruro, Santa Cruz, and Tarija, as well as in other countries (Peru, Argentina, Chile, Brazil and Central America).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ongoing research: <\/strong>Research and documentation projects are under way in several departments\nof Bolivia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rock art protection and\nconservation<\/strong>: SIARB has developed a policy for\nthe conservation of sites taking into account the experience of international\ncolleagues and considering such factors as the low educational level of the\nmajority of the population, and the limited budget of cultural agencies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
