Cow & Calf 06 (July 2013)

sketchfab

Prehistoric carving discovered atop a knoll approximately 230 meters southeast of the Cow and Calf on Rombalds Moor, West Yorkshire. This fairly upright rock is documented in Boughey & Vickerman's 2003 publication 'Prehistoric Rock Art of the West Riding' as IAG314, where it is described as: 'A large, flat, pear-shaped, rough grit rock featuring three cups and a basin. The carving was recently named.' The CSI: Rombalds Moor project subsequently referenced the stone 'Cow and Calf 06,' noting the same motifs. However, they suggest that the larger bowl may be naturally formed. Is there a ring around the larger cup?
