Subject
New Deal, 1933-1939.; Petroglyphs -- Wyoming.
Description
Plate 8 of Petroglyphs of Western Central Wyoming, Shoshone Site.
An Anthropomorphic and Zoomorphic panel. At the extreme left appears a woman and two children, because of the female sign, she was probably a mid-wife. In the center appears the figure of a man, either worn or unfinished.
The zoomorphic figure appears to be that of a wolf.
To the extreme right the figure of a woman and child may be seen.
Wolves were once numerous in this region, and this may record the attack of a wolf on a family of three.
