Just a fifteen-minute drive from my house is the Petroglyph National Monument, a jumble of lava rocks with thousands of carvings left by the ancestors of the Pueblo, Navajo, and Apache people. I love searching for certain pictures, trying to find ones I've seen before, hunting for new shapes, animals, faces.
Some are mysterious, like these fellows with the square hats (most likely depictions of Pueblo gods).
Some are everyday.

Wow! That must be inspiring to live so close to something so amazing and so old. Thanks for sharing it.
Hey, I went there last summer on the Family Road Trip!So cool,my boys loved it.
I agree with why we write. When my stepdad died and we cleaned out his office, pretty much all we decided to keep were the books he'd authored.
Well, those and the collection of gag gifts and joke books. ;)
Wow, those are amazing. I love being reminded of how it's human nature to want to hear and tell and draw stories.
Those pictures are so incredibly cool!
That is so neat! I guess we humans never could avoid telling stories.
