Tree of Life Rock
The rock carvings of the Tree Of Life Rock (also Tree Of Life Stone ; German "Lebensbaumfels" ) are in North Yorkshire , England , in front of a field border south of Timble, north of Otley and east of Snowden Carr.
The digestion is about 18 bowl ( English cups ), of which 11 are connected by grooves having a central groove which is a sheet or a tree represent, hence the name. The outcrop is long, but the scoring is limited to the eastern end, with the exception of a few simple cups at the western end. The Bronze Age carvings could represent a map of the area's springs and streams flowing into a river.
In the Solbergfeltet in Østfold in Norway there are similar tree-like rock carvings, although they are also rare in Norway.
