Amateur archaeologist George Currie in Dundee, Scotland, found more than 670 new Bronze and Stone Age inscriptions , according to the Guardian during the past 15 years of searching in Perthshire.
Currie was interested in archeology for a long time, but his passion for rock art began after he discovered the strange two-meter stone inscription not yet recorded at an archaeological site.
Currie's discoveries will be in the largest research project on prehistoric rock art in the UK, which will last five years, starting in 2017. This project is chaired by the Scottish Historical Society (HES). ) under the direction of Tertia Barnett, PhD at Edinburgh University, Scotland.
Archaeologists discovered more than 2,500 carved stone slabs in Scotland, dating from 4000 to 2000 BC. Most stone inscriptions have indentations on the surface, surrounded by concentric circles with extended lines or grooves.
The original purpose and meaning of stone engravings is still a mystery. Many scholars speculate that they are used to mark territory, reproductive symbols, astronomical signs, or simply doodle pictures of prehistoric people.
