Copt Howe / Langdale Boulders Rock Art

Copt Howe / Langdale Boulders feature ancient rock carvings situated just outside the village of Chapel Stile, located northwest in Cumbria, England. The rock art showcases a variety of pecked lines, ring marks, cup marks, and intricate patterns. Natural circular or sub-circular depressions have been modified to become part of the artwork. Some areas feature modern graffiti. Boulder 1 (or A) stands out with its large panel of rock art and smaller adjacent panel. Excavations led by Dr Aaron Watson and Professor Richard Bradley in 2018 uncovered additional buried rock art beneath the current terrain. The two panels are divided by a relatively recent wall, prompting me to create a model that brings both panels together for better understanding of their connection. I'm not entirely satisfied with the model, as it resulted in some holes; fortunately, these appear in areas without decorative surfaces.
