Seni cadas

Seni cadas (bahasa Inggris: rock art) adalah landscape art (seni bentangalam) berupa gambar, motif, atau desain yang terletak di alam seperti karang, gua (dinding maupun langit-langit), dan di hamparan tanah (Whitley. 2005). Lukisan purba merupakan fenomena di dalam dunia arkeologi yang terdapat di banyak tempat di dunia. Lukisan Purba terbagi atas beberapa bagian berdasarkan tempatnya, antara lain pictographs (melukis dan menggambar), petroglyps ( pengukir dan memahat), earth figures (lukisan bumi), beberapa arkeolog juga memasukkan terowongan dan alur yang dibuat manusia sebagai bagian dari lukisan purba.
