Abstract
The article is devoted to the semantic analysis of one of the images of the petroglyphic complex Rashaan-Had (Mongolia) – the image of a dancing person. With the help of the author's technique, the image itself, the accompanying images forming the composition, are examined in detail. As a result, the original interpretation of the image as an ancestor, first ignited the fire, is given.
