Palart.691
The sequence of drawings on this limestone slab began with the realistic engraving of a reindeer with its knees bent as if it is on its side on the ground, probably dead. A wavy sign beneath its nose may be blood and there is an oblique line in its chest. Superimposed on the reindeer there are three stallions shown cantering and another standing.
