Summary

This is an abstract from the "From the Plains to the Plateau: Papers in Honor of James D. Keyser" session, at the 86th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Jim Keyser has been a key figure in recording and interpreting rock art in Wyoming, Montana, and South Dakota for many years. This paper highlights some of his many contributions in understanding Late Prehistoric and Protohistoric narrative rock art. Jim has expanded his impact on the field of rock art research by providing fieldwork opportunities for volunteers and by promptly making the results available to archaeologists and the public alike. His research and willingness to collaborate have furthered rock art research in the northern Plains and encouraged public appreciation of the region’s rich body of warrior art.
