摘要：The Maros-Pangkep karst region in South Sulawesi always attracts national and international attention due to its distinctive archaeological remains which include stone flakes, bone tools and rock arts. Large numbers of artworks, especially human hand stencil, have been found together with naturalistic local fauna and geometric images in 93 caves in the Maros-Pangkep region. The hand stencils, in red or brown colour, are also known as negative paintings because the pigment is sprayed around and over the hands; thus the left hand pattern is surrounded by patchy colour. This motif is more universal compared to the animal depictions or geometric designs. A small number of black drawn figurative and geometric designs have also been found, but only in Pangkep regio.
