Sohagighat, Lakhajoar, Kathotia, and Jaora are all recognized rock art sites.
These four locations are known for their prehistoric rock shelters containing ancient rock paintings (petroglyphs and pictographs). They are primarily located in the vicinity of Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, and are part of or related to the larger complex of rock art sites in the Vindhya Range, including the famous Bhimbetka rock shelters. Archaeological surveys and studies have documented numerous rock art sites at these locations.
