Rock Art in West Papua
The publication of Rock Art in West Papua, with its exhaustive visual presentation of rock ‘art’ expressions, is an important contribution that significantly increases our knowledge of the field. Its coverage of the whole West Papua region in Indonesia complements other publications on rock art that have focused mostly on other areas of the world. For this we are grateful to the two authors of this book, who have taken pains to visit and document all the rock art sites, many of which are found in out-of-the-way and inaccessible locations. They present a general overview which takes an essentially archaeological approach whilst also employing occasional anthropological perspectives; an approach that could also be an inspiration for a specifically anthropological study on the West Papuan communities.
