A close crop of an earlier post from a couple of weeks ago. Also, since I'm on my home computer, I slightly enhanced it using a parametric mask in Darktable to reveal a bit more detail.
@Jennifer They are certainly mysterious. For a long time now I have taken the position that we cannot know what they represent because we are not of the culture that created them. To do so would be cultural appropriation, IMO. And while I extend to present day SW Native cultures the courtesy to interrupt them, I remain skeptical that they can really know, given these images are, in this case, probably 800yrs old. Modern Natives are not cliff dwellers & the stories will change over the millennia.
