Capo di Ponte, Corno di Seradina, roccia 12. Una breve storia delle ricerche e un’intervista

particular reference to rock 12 of Seradina I, one of the best known engraved rocks in Valcamonica. Research on the surface of this rock was published for the first time in 1932 by Raffaello Battaglia, but the comprehensive scientific investigations and fieldwork were conducted from 1962 to 1989, at which time the rock came to be further exposed as viewed in its present state. This exposure of the rock was evident after the excavations conducted by the Centro Camuno di Studi Preistorici, affecting the northern and eastern portions. For this paper the author interviewed prof. Mila Simões de Abreu who was the director of archaeological fieldworks between 1981 and 1989, and she provided a summary of the research phases covering those years. This research summary concludes with a literature review of the major publications that concern research on the images present on rock 12, marked by year of publication.
