Rock Art Links

These are links to other pages which existed at some point in the distant past and may have been of interest to anyone who found themselves on this page. Most of the links you see here now were originally complied in 1995-1996. It's possible that some of these pages still exist, although many or most don't, or if they do, they have moved. If any of them look interesting to you but the link is dead, try typing the name into Google. I should update this, but I have no idea when I actually will.

ROCK ART WEB SITES : Archaic North American

These pages contain at least some information and/or images of something possibly related to archaic North American (or at least BCS) rock art styles.

The Archeology of Horseshoe Canyon, a book published by the National Park Service (PDF format).
Grand Canyon Polychrome Pictographs by Mary Allen. The only site on this style that I know of.
Rock Art Of The Southwest
42Gr532 A Rock Art E-'Zine: lots about the Barrier Canyon style.
James Q. Jacobs' Rock Art Home Page has both Barrier Canyon and Pecos River panels.
Doak Heyser's Southwestern U.S. Rock Art
Bob's Rock Art Photo Gallery
Max Bertola's Southern Utah had sections on Barrier Canyon panels but no longer existed the last time I tried. The pages used to be:
- Horseshoe (Barrier) Canyon
- Sego Canyon (pre-restoration)
- Buckhorn Wash (pre-restoration)
All-Terrain Adventures' Great Gallery and Head of Sinbad Pages

ROCK ART ORGANIZATIONS

By no means a complete list.

ARARA, the American Rock Art Research Association.
URARA, the Utah Rock Art Research Association.
Friends of Sierra Rock Art (note new web address)
The Rock Art Foundation

ROCK ART WEB SITES : Other North American

These pages have (had?) images and/or information about North American rock art and archaeology. I have not done a complete update of these links since 1998, I've only moved the dead links to the dead links list, so many of these links do not work. Other than a few favorites I may delete this list soon. No offense intended to those of you about to be deleted, but there are better lists than mine, and I'm barely keeping up with just the pages about BCS and related sites.

Donald Austin's Petroglyphs.us has several pictures of sites mostly in California, as well as suggested books, and links to Donald's store that sells petroglyph-related merchandise.
William Wells' American Southwest web page has a number of rock art photos in various western US states.
The Center for Archaeoastronomy
Petroglyph Pullout Fremont Rock Art at Capitol Reef National Park
Richard Heather's Rock Art of the Southwest
William Hyder's home page
Sanilac Petroglyphs in Michigan
TRACEOnline Rock Art Bulletin

ROCK ART WEB SITES : Pages with Good Lists

Much more extensive lists than this one.

RockArtNet
The UCSB Anthropology Web Site has a great list of Cool Web Sites and a 3D kiva model.
The Southwestern Archaeology page and their list of links.

ROCK ART WEB SITES : Dead Links I'll delete soon.

If a link is here, it's because it was unreachable the last few times I tried. If it has moved and you know where it is now, let me know.

William H. Calvin has a chapter from his book "How the Shaman Stole the Moon" on his home page.
