ROUND HEAD CATALOGUE is an essential initiative focused on documenting the extensive and often overlooked rock art of the Sahara Desert, a region renowned as a monumental museum of ancient paintings and engravings. This project aims to create a comprehensive database of rock art that spans thousands of years, from prehistorical times to recent history, showcasing the artistic expressions of cultures that inhabited this vast landscape.

The catalogue features various rock art styles, including the Kel Essuf and Round Head figures, each representing distinct periods and cultural narratives. Emphasizing the importance of scholarly research, the project addresses the previous gaps in knowledge caused by amateur explorations. It offers vital insights into the significance of these artworks, many of which are located in Algeria, Libya, Niger, and Chad. Supporting this initiative not only helps preserve valuable cultural heritage but also fosters greater understanding of human history in one of the world's most inhospitable environments. Those interested can contribute and gain access to exclusive resources, including an e-book detailing these artistic treasures.
