LOPEZ ESTUPINAN, Laura. Classification and spatial analysis of domes and cavities in rock art studies of archaeological significance in the Eastern Andes of Colombia. Rev. colomb. antropol. [online]. 2022, vol.58, n.1, pp.353-382.  Epub 31-Dic-2021. ISSN 0486-6525.  https://doi.org/10.22380/2539472x.1808.

The high presence of domes in various departments of Colombia led to propose a classification, registration and recognition of domes as archaeological assets. To do this, the article differentiates between domes and cavities, delving into the cultural uses documented so far in rock art studies and proposing domes as an input for spatial analysis. From a cartographic review, a territorial and archaeological reconnaissance, it is found that the rocky supports with more than eight domes are found in river valleys and indicate relationships with lake bodies, confirming their possible use as hydric models.

Palabras clave : domes; cavities; rock art; water models.
