Valcamonica, Bedolina Rock 5 (5)

Description
Every scene on this rock has its own interest. This area of Rock 5 seems to specialise in Canid images. Dogs can be recognised in Valcamonica rock art by their curled, upright tails & their extended bodies with short legs. Wolves are depicted with a very similar canine appearance but have downward-pointing tails (see the Cemmo boulders, which have the two depictions close on the same panel). Here on Rock 5, there are two separate packs of hounds.
My favourite figure on the rock is the very simply-drawn matchstick man warrior to the left of centre. His arms, legs and body are fundamentally just a star shape, but the addition of a basic head and a rudimentary sword & shield, plus the subtle shaping of his limbs embue him with a strong, evocative warrior stance. Simple but very effective and artistic (to my eye anyway!). I couldn't guess at the period, as I have not seen anything else like him elsewhere, but I would instinctively place him perhaps in the Late Bronze Age.
