Stroneskar cupmarkings is an ancient rock art site located approximately 1750 metres west-southwest of Stroneskar in Argyllshire, Scotland. The site consists of cupmarks, the characteristic shallow depressions pecked into the rock surface that represent one of Scotland's most enigmatic forms of prehistoric rock art. Such cupmark traditions are typically attributed to the Neolithic or Bronze Age periods, though precise dating remains challenging without associated artefactual evidence. The site's survival as part of Scotland's broader rock art heritage provides valuable evidence of ritual or symbolic practices among prehistoric communities in the Argyll region.
