Product Description
In the deep and colorful sandstone canyons west of the Rockies, along river corridors of northern Colorado, and inscribed on rock outcroppings of the Colorado Plateau, the rock art of ancient and historic inhabitants of the West is an enduring record of past ideas and practices. This book traces connections between art on canyon walls, rock shelters, and boulders and designs on pottery, basketry, and other artifacts, placing the art in cultural context. An abundance of drawings, photographs, and maps illustrate the text and reveal the diversity of rock art forms and settings in the West.

Excellent overall guide June 21, 2000

This book takes a look at many of the different rock ar symbols and their possible meanings. While not a complete guide to all of the sites, I think it's an excellent companion to the Polly Schaafsma books. It's a little light on pictures, but overall, an excellent reference.
