An Indication of Hunting Activities from Southern Nevada rock art (2015)

DOCUMENT Citation Only Dena Sedar.

Rock art hunting scenes are often ascribed as hunting magic or as part of a shamanistic ritual in which the rock art panel portrays the desired outcome of a hunt. However, it can be argued that there are petroglyph panels that depict what was actually occurring at a site. 26CK383 is a prehistoric site in Southern Nevada with numerous rock art panels, including one panel that shows two anthropomorphs directing desert bighorn sheep into what appears to be a corral. This could be a representation...

[His explanations borrow too much from Perkins’...
