Rock art in Denmark

title: Rock art in Denmark
text: Rock art in Denmark differs significantly from that of the Scandinavian peninsula. Carvings are smaller, focused on agriculture, rarely figural. Some examples are engraved on megaliths or cists, but most on small glacial erratics. Many of these have been placed in museums or incorporated into churches. A few have been left in situ, like the two stones at Mandbjerghøj. The repertoire of images of these carvings includes raised hands, Footprints, wheels, sun crosses, and spirals, as well as ships.
