The author sets out his procedures of classifying rock art, focusing on the rock art regions of the Sahara. The primary criteria he chooses in searching tor a typology, after emphasising that the objectives of such endeavours need to be clearly defined, are presumed ethnic groups, style, artistic groups and relative chronology. He cautions against simplistic deductions derived from subjectively perceived styles, and he emphasises the need for comprehensive interdisciplinary studies.
