Explain to pupils that monuments like Stonehenge aren’t the only symbols left for us to use to try and understand what prehistoric people thought. Another really good source of evidence for archaeologists is ‘Rock Art’, as this can tell us about past cultures and their beliefs. In this session they will learn about Rock Art and have a go at making some of their own. Download the ready made PowerPoint with the accompanying notes and worksheets (above).

Start by getting pupils to make their ‘rock’ and leave it for 30 minutes to set whilst you follow the PowerPoint to look at Rock Art from around the world and play the quiz. Pupils will then have the knowledge to design and carve their own designs on to their ‘rock’.
