Abstract

A survey conducted in August 2018 in Anshan City, China, has systematically recorded and studied three site complexes including eight rock art panels with over 300 petroglyphs mainly consisting of cupules. Five microerosion age estimates have been secured from some of them, ranging from the 2nd century BCE to the 7th century CE, by profitably utilising the universal calibration coefficient for quartz.
