NORWAY - Rock Art of Alta

"This group of petroglyphs in the Alta Fjord, near the Arctic Circle, bears the traces of a settlement dating from c. 4200 to 500 B.C. The thousands of paintings and engravings add to our understanding of the environment and human activities on the fringes of the Far North in prehistoric times." -http://whc.unesco.org



A really really nice UNESCO postcard from Joey of Stavanger, Norway.
Thank you so much Joey for making me smile thru this postcard! =)
