Abstract

For the period 2016–2019 a significant number of previously unknown petroglyphs were revealed in the Elovy 3 panel (the Elovy Island, Kanozero Lake). Detection of petroglyphs was facilitated by the use of photogrammetry techniques, careful night photographing of the panel with petroglyphs. The total number of new revealed rock carvings is is over 150, among them about hundred figures are recognizable and fall into one of the categories accepted in the study of rock art (anthropomorphs, zoomorphs, etc.).These findings expand our ideas about the stylistic diversity of the Kanozero petroglyphs. In this work, new motifs and compositions of rock carvings are introduced, both having analogues and previously not typical for the Kanozero rock art complex.
