“Niola Doa-like” motifs in the G.R. d'Archeï (1)3D Model
Model 27082017. The left segment of the Gran Riparo d’Archeï main panel contains the well-know paintings reproducing the iconography of the Niola Doa petroglyphs. The oustanding couple to the left comprehends one figure wearing a skirt and one figure wearing only body accessories and decorations. Both figures share many of the most distinctive iconographic features of the Niola Doa pecked humans as shown in their core area of Wadi Guirchi. Direct comparison side by side of this couple with the first two humans to the left in the row of pecked figures depicted in the Niola Doa “Site 1” is made even more compelling by some additional matching details revealed by enhanced pictures like the spread fingers featuring the downwardly outstretched arm of the figure wearing a skirt (processed by DStretch_CRGB and YRD).
