Hohokam petroglyphs




Etched into the rhyolite on Signal Hill in Saguaro National Park about 800 years ago, likely by ancestors of the modern-day Tohono O'odham, this rock art may be directions to water sources and hunting.

  1. These things fascinate me. Thanks for posting them. The cactus photos are also excellent.

  2. Thank you, Wayne.

    Each rock plane faced a different direction so my camera couldn't capture images in the shade. One series was high on a cliff face off limits from the trail. Yes, they fascinate me,too
