      Summary: Two previously unrecorded sites on Bonaire in the Netherland Antilles are reported in this study. Pictographs on the island were subjected to a form analysis to determine the relationship of the representational elements to the non-representational elements. The results show that the pictographs at Site S1 are primarily non-representational and do not have recurring motifs found at other sites on Bonaire. Those at Site S2 are unlike any others on Bonaire. The rock art from the Lesser Antilles and Venezuela is primarily representational and petroglyphs. Those found in western Cuba, Aruba and Curacao are non-representational with recurring motifs. The Dominican Republic's and eastern Cuba's rock art is representational and, like Curacao, both have pictographs and petroglyphs present.
