Özet

Petroglyphs are important language of communication of history without illustrators and readers. In thisarticle, the possibility of analyzing petroglyph based on idioms emphasizes and a research method model ispresented. Tail types encountered in tamgha shaped mountain goat figures were investigated by using “The Methodof Petroglyph Analysis based on Idioms”. The results of analysis on selected idioms from three dialect groups ofTurkish language showed that ‘tail’ refers ‘honor’ and ‘power’. Accordingly, the long and upright tailed mountaingoat tamgha is the symbol of honor and power of khan. Another conclusion is the limiting rule in drawing thesefigures. Accordingly, the tamghas drawn must correspond to the social status of the person it represents. So the longupright tail could be drawn to represent the khan and the dynasty. All of these conclusions points out the importanceof petroglyphs, as a visual material, in the social communication process.
