During archaeological research, especially in the study of the historical and Islamic periods, the focus is on kings’ palaces, religious buildings and famous artists. Ordinary people are generally ignored. This means that all people of every social class should be studied to understand past societies. Petroglyphs are one of the most significant archaeological types of evidence to study ordinary people’s art and concerns. During an archaeological survey conducted by the author in Bavanat county, several petroglyphs were found in this area. Considering the importance of rock art in archaeology, anthropology, sociology, the history of art and rock art tourism, in this article, the petroglyphs of Sangbor that were discovered during the survey of Bavanat have been introduced. At this site several petroglyphs are identified on the rock outcrops in the area. Zoomorphs, anthropomorphs, geometric shapes, and unknown shapes are depicted. Petroglyphs were created by three methods: engraving, engraving-pounding and scratching. According to the amount of patination and weathering, the above petroglyphs were created during different periods. Natural factors such as rock erosion, wind and rain have gradually destroyed these rock art. In addition to preserving rock art sites like Sangbor, they can become a tourist attraction for rock art or cultural tourism.

The Ilam province, includes the western part of the Central Zagros, is less known in terms of rock art and petroglyphs, and no serious research has been done in this field so far. The collection of new Bardah Serkha petroglyphs was created in the middle of Dezan Valley and next to the road that passes through the western terrace wall of the valley. The collection includes 4 petroglyphs. These petroglyphs include two male mountain goats with long horns and linear bodies, shown in detail and moving westward. On the opposite side, two hunters with bows are shown shooting at goats. These two archers are standing and pulling the bow string. The bows in their hands are curved and the two ends to which the string is tied are turned outwards. These bows were common only in the Central Zagros region. Despite the similarities in shape and size with Assyrian and Elamite bows, they are different. Based on the investigations, it is believed that the origin of this type of bow is from Ilam, which has become endemic in this region. The chronology of these petroglyphs is based on the bows in the hands of hunters, which belong to the Iron Age III and contemporary with the Neo-Assyrian and Neo-Elamite periods.

At the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, French prehistory underwent a conceptual and methodological overhaul in line with the movement affecting the human sciences at the time. This change was brought about by a new generation of prehistorians, but some of the earliest, including Émile Cartailhac, were also at the forefront of the movement. The Toulouse prehistorian was not a systemic thinker, but conducted research into, and dissemination and promotion of prehistory at both the national and international level. He played an active role in the main debates renovating prehistory and proposed a series of compromises that reconfigured prehistoric practice by the renovation of methods and the opening up of new areas of investigation.

Au tournant des XIXe et XXe siècles, la préhistoire française connaît une refonte conceptuelle et méthodologique accompagnant le mouvement qui affecte alors les sciences de l’homme. Cette mutation est le fait d’une génération montante mais certains préhistoriens de la première heure, dont Émile Cartailhac, l’accompagnent également. Sans esprit de système, le préhistorien toulousain mène de front recherche, diffusion et valorisation, aux niveaux national et international. Il joue un rôle actif dans les principaux débats qui renouvellent la préhistoire et propose une série d’accommodements qui reconfigurent la pratique préhistorienne en rénovant les méthodes et en défrichant de nouveaux espaces d’investigation.
