To the Question of the Rock Art Objects Copying (on the Example of Zoomorphic Representation from the First Section of the Shalabolino Rock Art Site)

The research of the Shalabolino rock art site is covering quite a long period of time. Every survey is important and makes significant contribution to science both about the site and rock art generally. This paper presents results of research based on one zoomorphic representation taken from the west sector of the 1st section of the Shalabolino rock art site. The visual art object is considered to be a valuable source for further researchers. Authors focused on detailed description of the carving based on the fact that the carving was made in the technique of engraving, monochrome painting and pecking. We carried out two different tracings and two three-dimensional visualization of panel with the engraving due to the use of contact and noncontact methods of documenting. Also the obtained data was compared among themselves. Every used methods of copying carvings was described with emphasizing features, advantages and disadvantages. Besides, it was realized the comparison with tracing made by previous researcher. The outcome allowed to conclude that achievement of the most objective source for further researches requires complex of methods of copying carvings.
