Reconstructing Prehistoric Cultural Landscapes: A Multidisciplinary and Technological Reassessment of Rock Art Heritage in Azerbaijan within the Eurasian Context

Azerbaijani rock art, including the Gobustan Rock Art Cultural Landscape, reveals strong stylistic and thematic affinities with broader Eurasian prehistoric traditions. This suggests significant transregional cultural exchange, migration dynamics, and diffusion of symbolic systems from the Upper Paleolithic to the Bronze Age. The study employs a multidisciplinary approach, integrating archaeology, iconographic analysis, and advanced digital documentation techniques like photogrammetry and 3D scanning. These methods enhance both analytical precision and preservation strategies, addressing environmental and anthropogenic threats. The research underscores Azerbaijan's rock art as a foundational element of national cultural identity and an integral component of global heritage discourse.
