World heritage rock art site in Alta, Northern Norway.
Askeladden ID number: 28486-2
This panel is found on the edge of a rock outcrop, and may have been bigger, but was an area where bonfire were common, wreacking havoc on the rock surface. Today, we know of 4 figures here, three reindeer and a bear. The panel is situated about 20 masl making the figures about 6000 years old. It is also located very close to several other panels (OP11A,B and C, OP15 and OP 21) and may be a part of the story being told on these panels as well. Notice that three of the figures are light pink in colour, which shows that they have been painted when found in the 1970s.
