Depictions of Bronze Age settlements are rare. Yet they do exist: carved into rocks. The petroglyphs from the Val Camonica valley in Lombardy offer a glimpse into the daily lives of the pile-dwelling people. Their houses, fields, paths, grazing animals, and even themselves, dancing and fighting, are easily recognisable. Alongside domestic animals such as sheep, goats and dogs, game animals such as deer and roe deer are also depicted.
