Rock paintings and engravings are a very fragile cultural heritage whose\nsurvival is threatened by natural elements, but frequently much more by\ncareless visitors. Here are some guidelines adapted from a leaflet by the\nSouthern African Rock Art Research Association (SARARA) and from a publication\nby South African investigators David Lewis-Williams and Geoffrey Blundell\n(1998) which apply to South American rock art sites as well:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is important for people to realize that rock art is valuable and\nbecause of its antiquity it should be treated with respect.
