Abstract

Beside the metallic weapon figures, the engravings of the sites of North Akka showed signs of the existence of cattle, mostly oxen cattle. The representation of anthropomorphs is also notable for its evolving aspects towards the schematic style of Libyco-Berber. Regarding wildlife, it is also represented encompassing elephants, rhinoceros, ostriches, antelopes, etc. Nevertheless, the figures of domestic cattle precede those of other subjects. The (peltiform) axes and the dagger, figured in two sites, attest to a mastered knowledge of metallurgy.
