The paper presents some results of the traceological study at the Sydinskaya rock art site located in Krasnoyarsk Кegion on Bychikha Mountain. At present, a new direction in rock art research is being formed in archaeology experimental-traceological investigation. It presumes a combination of the method of experimental modeling and the traceological analysis. The methodology developed in the framework of this direction was applied to the study of petroglyphs at the Sydinskaya site. The selection of images for the analysis was based on the already obtained data on their cultural and chronological attribution, which enabled us to focus on the study of the most important or disputable examples. Analyzing the traces of pecking, we established in some cases the material of the instrument used (metal or stone) and the way of using it (direct pecking or pecking via a mediator), i. e. the study revealed the complex of techniques and tools that ancient masters used to create certain artistic images on the rocks in different periods.
