Rock Art in Gheorgheni (Romania).

On the Teasc Mountain located in the Borsec mountains at around 1300 m, archaeologists have uncovered several petroglyphs depicting abstract shapes. Among them we can see lines, circles, small dots, pentagrams, and modern letters made by shepherds. While it has been difficult to date the symbols, there are several similarities with Neolithic cultures especially with the so called Danubian writing.
