Description
This is the second 3D model of the 'Great Animal' on Rock 6 at Luine. The other (Model Luine - Rock 6 (1)), was made from photos taken in July 2025 when viewing conditions were not at all ideal due to the strong overhead sun. The photos on this model were taken on my second visit in November 2025, when the sun was less intense and striking the carved surfaces at a more oblique angle.
Rock 6 has over 50 square metres of widely differing carvings from many periods. The Great Animal is The earliest of the carvings here, and one of the earliest in Valcamonica. The figure is generally agreed to be an elk, wounded by thrown weapons. It is thought to date at the latest from the sixth millennium BC - elks became extinct in Valcamonica around this time. Its collar must be considered a later 'add-on.' There are six other, much less well defined, epipaleolithic animal figures identified on Rock 6 but this example is the most visible. The other animal figures are mostly elks but one or two may be goats.
