Rock paintings are an artistic creation and an important source of knowledge for human civilization. The rock drawings are also
a record and illustrated archive of all areas of ancient human life. From these rock drawings, we can identify the artistic level that

of technology" (methods of implementing rock drawings) of a group of newly discovered rock drawings by the researcher found

archaeological sites using the means of modern technologies. The study included An interpretation and analysis of those rock
drawings. In addition, a review of all technical methods in implementing the group of discovered rock drawings, and the
multiplicity of their patterns and implementation from one site to another. The ancient artist used several technical methods in

“the schematic style, the framing style, the recursive style, and the semi-realistic style", those styles that indicate the plurality of
