Description
Dinosaur National Monument in Utah has some early petroglyphs or rock engravings that are well over 1,000 years old. These images were chipped into the rock, not painted as pictographs were. Photo taken in the spring of 1996 and scanned.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments.
They are very much appreciated.

I think I know what they mean!!! "Eat At Joe's!' Great capture, Dana
I can see this hunter faced a great bounty. The photo really shows a lot of detail and that is not easy to get. I have a passion of petroglyphs and pictographs. This really is an exciting shot.
cool!!
That's a lot like I draw, ha ha!
gorgeous capture, colors & beautiful !!!!
Fabulous carvings, great shot.
Imagine if they had Poser back then ! - Cool shot
Wonderful to see they had their priorities right..earrings and a nice frock.
1000 years, but does not show! Wonderful capture , Dana !
I guess 3D graphics was in the future at the time or the artist had perspective problems. Great capture the petroglyphs are in excellent shape considering they've gone through 1000 years of weathering. Would also imagine that the dry climate helps. George
These are amazing! Great shot!
Wonderful capture of this old amerindian art
Guess things don't change, great find!!!
Great capture of these, I wonder what story they tell. :)
Great capture my friend!
~Amazing shot!~
Excellent capture and it is amazing they have lasted so long and still look this good.
awesome, splendid image!
Great shot Dana!
Great clarity, color and texture in this old snap, Dana. I don't know what to interpret from the erstwhile petroglyph carvings. A hunting party of some sort, without weapons?
excellent image
amazing how they still are in super shape. thanks for sharing dana..
this is super cool stuff
These always amaze me. I saw petroglyphs in Hawaii, miles of them and they make me wonder who did them and what they were saying.
Great capture! ;o)
Splendid capture Dana, this is really amazing! Well done!
