• Petroglyphs - are illustrations created by abolishing part of a rock surface by incising or carving, as a form of rock art.
• Angono Petroglyphs - are petroglyphs carved into a rock wall in Angono, Rizal, Philippines. It consists of 127 human and animal figures engraved on the rockwall probably carved during the late Neolithic, or before 2000 BC.

In this age, the Internet paved the way for faster communication and the creation of the social network. Moreover, voice, image, sound and data are digitalized.
