Description
Hut figures are common here at Naquane and in the neighbouring Foppe di Nadro park. some of these on Rock 35 interestingly incorporate natural scratches (glacial striations) on the rock surface into elements of their design.
The huts, which are a feature typical of the Camunian area, have been interpreted in various ways: initially as images of real structures such as houses, warehouses (grain stores) and temples.
Some of these contain certain realistic features: a central post, a supporting plinth and a roof with projecting beams.
More recently it has been suggested that they are imaginary places, probably sacred and connected with the afterlife (with cinerary urns from Tuscany & Lazio providing a comparison).
My own thoughts are that they represent real structures as they occur in village scenes with people and animals around them. The population had to occupy some sort of structures and no other types of dwelling occur on the corpus of engravings in Valcamonica.
