What they in the real world and their visualizations. As this type drew was not just a sign, they also implied a behavior of work pertains to a wider scope, we propose bringing a theoretical framework to a young domain such as data visualization.

In Valcamonica, a valley close to Brescia in the north of Italy, there is the largest number of prehistoric petroglyphs in the world. Here, UNESCO identified about 140,000 different drawings. But the actual number is likely twice as much because some of them are still covered by vegetation. All these incisions date back to different ages: Epipaleolithic, Neolithic, Copper Age, etc., until the Middle Age. This corresponds to a long period, about six or eight millenniums, where people have used this kind of . Historical information has been deduced from these drawings: people living in that area practiced agriculture, fought to protect their community, hunted wild animals, and prayed according to their religious beliefs. For thousands of years, people living Figure 1: The network visualization based on authors and there represented their world through visualization. keywords derived from publications.
