    What do you call the act of carving chalk figures in the earth?

    Question #102715. Asked by nibbles0011. (Feb 02 09 10:16 AM)

    		I believe you are referring to Leucippotomy, the art of carving white horses in chalky areas. This is seen in southern England and presumed of prehistoric origin.
