RE: A wonderful Sunday!

in #bouldersunday • 6 years ago

Wow what a cool ancient place Big Rock is! Can just imagine
all the many people and critters over the ages passing by and
stopping there. The cave is interesting, wonder what's under
the modern petroglyphs. Ancient rock art was more for
timekeeping and navigation. Todays markings are perhaps
rock selfies, kilroy was here lol
The third photo from the top looks somewhat like
a alligator with the cave as its eye.
Awesome photographs of this wonderful place @melinda010100!
So glad you had such a beautiful day there before the rains.

Happy boulder Sunday 2U! :-)

        You gotta love a rock with a good story!

        The graffiti is definitely rock selfies. I read once that many of the petroglyphs may have been recreations of facial tattoos or the style of paint markings a person decorated his face with. Since there was no written language it was a way of showing that they had attended a gathering of the tribes or important meeting.
