Systematic field exploration in Tennessee has located a wealth of new rock art-some deep in caves, some in the open air. The authors show that these have a different repertoire and use of colour, and a different distribution in the landscape-the open sites up high and the caves down low. The landscape has been reorganised on cosmological terms by the pre-Columbian societies. This research offers an exemplary rationale for reading rock art beyond the image and the site
