Description

Paleolithic Rock art paintings  dated to megalithic times of 1000 BC are found at Pandavulagutta, Regonda mandal in the district.

Rock art is a form of landscape art, and includes designs that have been placed on boulder and cliff faces, cave walls and ceilings, and on the ground surface.

The artworks are often divided into three forms: petroglyphs which are carved into the rock surface, pictographs which are painted onto the surface, and earth figures engraved into the ground.  

 

The figures depicted in the paintings at these hills are geometrical designs and impressions in green, red, yellow and white pigment colours. Besides these rock paintings, inscriptions of Rastrakutan times and fresco paintings of late medieval period have also been reported from these hillocks. Some of the paintings were superimposed, depicting highly developed anatomical features and curves.

The other activities that can be done here are rock climbing, rapelling and hiking.
