A petrosomatoglyph is a supposed image of parts of a human or animal body in rock. They occur all over the world, often functioning as an important form of symbolism, used in religious and secular ceremonies, such as the crowning of kings. Some are regarded as artefacts linked to saints or culture heroes. The word comes from the Greek πέτρα (petra, "stone"), σῶμα (soma "body"), and γλύφειν (glyphein, "to carve"). Feet are the most common; however, other features including knees, elbows, hands, heads and fingers are also found.

  • Un petrosomatoglifo es una imagen de las partes de un cuerpo humano o de un animal, normalmente incisas en la roca. Muchos fueron creados por los pueblos celtas, como los pictos, escoceses, irlandeses, córnicos, cumbrios, bretones y galeses. Estas representaciones datan de la Edad Media, mientras que otras de finalidad incierta nos hablan de los tiempos megalíticos. Eran una forma importante de simbolismo que se utilizaba en ceremonias religiosas y seculares, como la coronación de los reyes. Algunos son considerados como objetos vinculados a los santos y los héroes del folclore, como el rey Arturo. (es)

  • Een petrosomatoglief is een afbeelding van een deel van het lichaam van een mens of dier in een steen. Deze afbeeldingen komen over de gehele wereld voor. Vaak is het een vorm van belangrijk symbolisme en wordt gebruikt in religieuze of wereldlijke rituelen, zoals de kroning van een koning. Sommige worden in verband gebracht met heiligen of culturele helden. Het woord komt van het Griekse πέτρα – petra ("steen"), σῶμα – soma ("lichaam"), en γλύφειν – glyphein (""). Voeten komen het vaakst voor, maar ook knieën, ellebogen, handen, vingers, etc. * Voetafdruk van Boedha, Gandhara, 1e eeuw * * * (nl)
