Rock Art in Romania
Small private museum containing 3 large stones with rock art on them. There were four stones originally. They were discovered after a landslide and sent to a local museum but one of them was used as a house foundation. The original discoverer then took them back to preserve them and created this small museum. The rock art was authenticated by researchers. It contains several solar symbols including a possible solar eclipse represented by 2 concentric circles.
