Researchers have discovered one of the largest collections of prehistoric rock carvings created by desert nomads that lived 6,000 years ago.

Archaeologists believe the 8,000 images carved into 500 rocks in Mexico's white desert of Coahuila, could provide valuable clues to the way pre-Hispanic hunter-gatherer tribes communicated with each other.

So-called petroglyph images often have deep cultural and religious meanings and many are believed to represent primitive forms of symbolic language combined with hallucinations from psychedelic drug use.

The style of the runes varies from place to place, suggesting that in addition to religious meanings, territorial boundaries and regional dialects existed between clans.

The rocks were discovered by scientists at Mexico's National Institute of Anthropology and History who have developed the site so it can be visited by the public.
