Nevada Petroglyphs

These Petroglyph's were worn into the rocks between 6,000 and 3,000 years ago by the native Indians, it is believed this area was a migration route for the wildebeest, while the Indians were waiting for the animals they produced this rock art.

Pete, neat subjects! I didn't see any petroglyphs when I was in Nevada, I wish I had though. Do you know what any of them mean?

If I had it to say, The first and second mean we waited all day and all night.
The third means one group went that way and the other this way down the mountain. The forth says the leader had a fit cause we were all banging on rocks scaring off the animals and not hunting. Just another day at the office.

No idea what they mean, just some doodles of stick men and other misc drawings i guess, kinda neat though, to think these were done so long ago:D

Hi, Mike
Not sure of the road name, these were taken at Grimes point near hidden cave.

Thanks for looking.

Yea, i was thinking the same, that would scare of the animals. Who knows maybe just a boredom reliever:D or maybe just waiting for Monday Night Football.
