In these panels, see if you can spot the following glyphs: Kokopelli (hump-backed flute player), spirals, stars, rattlesnakes, lizard, mountain lions, Kachina's, and what I think may be a turtle. Pretty cool, some are rather obvious, others, my husband the archaeologist has to tell me about.

Que Pasa? - Wot, no bambino in the shot! Smile
Who's responsible for this ancient graffiti?


The shots fine, but not overly interesting of course...maybe a close up might have been moreso.

The Pueblo Indians of the Middle Rio Grande Valley are responsible for this "ancient graffiti." The petroglyphs in this area span a time frame from roughly 800 B.C. to the late 1500's. I put you a close-up, Kev, but they don't always lend themselves well to that.
