Latmos Prehistorical Rock Paintings

 

Latmos Prehistorical Rock Paintings located around Beşparmak (Latmos) Mountains revealed that the history of the region dates back to 6000BC.
After an archeological excavation done by Australian scholar Dr. Anneliese Peschlow on Beşparmak Mountains, it is understood that the paintings originated in Prehistorical Era.
Furthermore these paintings are the first examples of prehistorical rock paintings.
Up till today there has been about a hundred rock paintings brought to daylight and although the paintings are mostly located around the ridge of the main peak, they are scattered on an area including the valley of Çine River as well. They form a homogenius group in terms of demonstrative style and subject, and except some details the likes of these paintings are found neither in Eagean nor Mediterrenean parts of Asia Minor. They are unique examples of their kind.
