Tomb of Ramesses IV The pharaoh Ramesses IV was buried in Tomb KV2, located in the Valley of the Kings, Egypt. The tombs of Ramesses II and VII are on either side. Ramesses died at the age of 27 in 1148 BC. He is connected to the Temple of Khonsu at Karnak. Coordinates 25.741530,32.602080 Description The tomb is of similar design to others in that it has a corridor to the burial chamber with side rooms. It is thought to be about 75 metres long and declines about 10 metres from the entrance. Chamber E, as the antechamber, has stars painted on the ceiling. Chamber K is built with side rooms, and the burial chamber J has a vaulted ceiling with astrological patterns along with the sarcophagus. Coptic monks were said to have lived in the tomb, and in the 19th century, explorers like Jean-François Champollion had camped there. Earlier, Romans were said to have left what is considered as graffiti in the tomb. Measurements These are the tombs' measurements in metres, including the a...
Petroglyphs 
Petroglyphs could have evolved from Neolithic markers, which sometimes displayed the reason for placement. These, in turn, phased into astrological objects and human depictions.
This would have been before the building of stone circles became the norm in depicting astrological and mathematical solutions. These then date from around 4655 bc before becoming more popular in 3300-1800 bc.
Earliest form of cup and ring marks are from the Neolithic tomb at Gravinis, there they used Lunar eclipse patterns and rings to mark a possible date of 4655 bc (although this date is thought to be accurate other possibilities like coordinates for the location exists).
Various petroglyphs display circles and are sometimes referred to as cup and ring marks.
These take various forms but are most probably Saros. A saros is a duration of 223 months.
These could be longer equating to more months or months and years, possibly a date/event or time. Other cup and ring marks display groups of stars.
Examples
Ballochmyle Wall, Ayrshire could suggest the southern Milky Way with the largest star as the largest ring on the inside curve.
The Cochno in Faifley, Scotland, which was reburied in 1965, could depict the local group of stars, with one being the Sun.
One group of cup and ring marks in Weetwood Moor, in Northumberland in a group of 5 (split 3/2) could be from the constellation Eridanus, showing month best visable which is December.
The Scandinavian's boats and fighting techniques, which had an influence on style, were incorporated into and then influenced the Vikings that followed.
Rock Carvings
There are a significant number of rock carvings at Tanum, this style of carvings continued for some time after the Romans, helped partly by their minimal advance into Scandinavian.
The significance and meaning of the rock carvings aren't altogether clear, but a common theme runs through them. The following are a few possibilities.
Area=Roman journey along coast.
Like heirographs, petroglyphs represent certain ideas.
Dot=land
Stick=long range
Line feet=American
Thor=lord
Comb shape=footprint

Chariot=roman times

Small settlements and monuments were built in the Bronze Age to the late Pre-Roman Iron Age in Scandinavian.
Scandinavia was part of the Roman expansion where they landed in 35 bc at Helgeroa. With little resistance, a much larger force arrived later at Heestrand.
Unbeknown each side had been watching the other, and a massive battle commenced. Out manoeuvred by the Scandinavias, the Romans were defeated with their fleet captured.
Tanumshede marks the location of the battle along with the carvings. The Roman boats were scuttled out to sea, and their armour and swords were buried.
