Ute Rock Art @ Arches National Park, Utah

            The stylized horse and rider surrounded by bighorn sheep and dog-like animals is typical of Ute rock art, Carved sometime between A.D. 1650 and 1850.

Depictions of horses indicate these rock peckings were made after Spanish explorers arrived in North America.

Many people call it “rock art,” but "art" doesn't adequately define their importance to American Indian tribes. These images are more than mere adornments hung on the landscape. They are communications between people across time, written not with letters but with visceral, vital imagery. They could express anything one human being might want to communicate to another. (NPS)
