Shamans and Symbols
Mihály Hoppál, whom we know in our country with his work titled Shamans in Eurasia, examines the relationship between prehistoric "rock paintings" and Shamanism in Shamans and Symbols.
What kind of unconscious processes must a shaman experience in order to visualize the images depicted in the rock paintings, and what are the ways to experience these processes? What do rock art tell us about the cultures of prehistoric communities and the ancient collective memory of humanity? Can a single grand theory be created that will bring together and explain all rock paintings and shamanic practices from China to America, from Europe to Central Asia?
Shamans and Symbols is a valuable guidebook to both the interpretation of ancient rock art and the extensive literature on the subject.
