I have seen compass-drawn circles in many locations throughout Valcamonica - e.g. Luine, Bedolina, Nadro & Paspardo. They do not seem to garner very much attention or comment. Here at Rock 6, there are many compass-drawn circles of hugely varying sizes, and some with multiple concentric rings, all with distinct central holes. On the same surface are also a number of pecked, cup and ring marks, usually assigned to the late Neolithic/Bronze Ages. Whatever the actual date of the compass-drawn circle is, they will have been produced many centuries after the cup & ring marks, yet they take a similar form. Is there some sort of continuity of meaning in these geometrical forms & is there a connectivity here between this area and that of Atlantic rock art? This struck me quite strongly the first time I visited this rock at Luine, and the thought has been re-enforced by my observations elsewhere. It would be significant as the interpretation of cup & ring marks in the Atlantic area is a complete mystery.
