Art or Utility? Exploring the Mystery of the Mghvimevi Petroglyphs
The Mghvimevi engravings, located in Georgia, are the most ancient rock art discovered in the South Caucasus, dating back to the Upper Paleolithic. They were first discovered by archaeologist S. Zamyatnyn in 1934. However, misinterpretations in the scientific literature later led to the petroglyphs being considered lost or destroyed. In 2022, they were rediscovered by the authors of this blog.
