Amazing Petroglyphs in Southern Nevada

[powderhound]

This is among my first posts here, so I'm not quite sure about posting locations of off-the-radar sites like this one. I'm more than happy to share info about this or anywhere else I've been.

I'd also love to hear any interpretations of these petroglyphs, amateur or pro.

First, we encountered a long panel clearly depicting a celebration after a successful hunt. This photo shows most of the panel.

Dancing in celebration:
51643

Dancers again and an archer shooting at animals:
51644

An archer and many animals:
51645

So, that was an amazing find, but a few minutes later things started to get WEIRD!

First, concentric circles on the ground. I wondered if this buried rock was once exposed.
51646

Then, we had our minds blown:
51647

Previous glyphs in perspective (look at the rock in the foreground):
51648

And things got even weirder:
51649

???
51650

51651

More circle designs and figures:
51652

And, my best shot of the day:
51653

Great find and nice photographs, the only thing missing is the Lat/Long info. Would be nice to photograph and document the location. :cool2:

I don't use a GPS, so I don't have coordinates. If you want to find these, access the area above Arrow Canyon. These 'glyphs are not in the wilderness area, but you could probably throw a rock and hit the wilderness area from the 'glyphs. They aren't far from Arrow Canyon narrows.

The Shield figures are unusual for Nevada. What area is this?

These were found near the Arrow Canyon Wilderness Area.

That would be so cool to see these ancient writings in person. I hope you had a great time seeing all of these incredible writings.
