Petroglyphs of Lake Onega and the White Sea
A demon, swans and skiers carved into Karelian rock
Some 4,500 figures are carved into rocks on the eastern shore of Lake Onega and near Belomorsk, made between 7,000 and 4,000 years ago: beluga hunts, skiers, boats and swans. The most famous is a two-metre "Demon" at Cape Besov Nos, which medieval monks tried to neutralise by carving a cross over it.
