It contains nearly 300 new sites (the majority of them at Jebel Uweinat), documenting the results of the surveys of both the author and others (principally Alessandro Menardi-Noguara, Hardy Böckli, Mark Borda, Flavio Cambieri) working in the region during the four years that have elapsed since the publication of the first edition. The second edition contains some five thousand additional photographs. Reflecting our increased knowledge and understanding, some sections on the rock art styles and cultures of the region have also been re-worked.
