Rebecca and I set out on a mission a while back to
find some real petroglyphs - ancient Native
American symbols carved into rock. So, we planned a
day hike into Paria Canyon near Lee's Ferry in
northern Arizona. We did find a few petroglyphs,
some desecrated by modern day graphiti which was
disappointing. Although, one could argue that
petroglyphs are ancient graphiti, it does ruin the
historical aspect and legacy of the ancient
peoples. This image was taken en route to one of
the petroglyphs and demonstrates the type of
environment these ancients may have lived in. --Keith |
