                <text>This collection consists of reports on and descriptions of petroglyphs and pictographs created during the New Deal archaeology that happened across Wyoming during the late 1930s and early 1940s. Ted C. Sowers oversaw these reports as Supervisor for the Archaeological Project of the Works Project Administration. Danny N. Walker, PhD, RPA, Wyoming State Archaeologists' Office, writes in a poster presented at the Society for American Archaeology's 76th Annual Meeting, "As with many other WPA projects, the survey closed with the advent of World War II, but provided a basis for future archaeological research" (2011). The Natrona County Public Library held these reports before they were transferred to the Casper College Library's Special Collections.</text>

              <text>Northeast Wyoming Plate 1, sketch of Medicine Creek Cave.&#13;
&#13;
Petroglyphs located on the northwest and northeast walls of Medicine Creek Cave. The scale of this graph is one inch equals one foot. The zig-zag line indicates the present floor-level, this data being necessary in order to determine how far down the petroglyphs extended. The broken line to the right represents the entrance to the cave or crevice, as the northwest wall is not included in the cave proper.&#13;
&#13;
The main petroglyph on the northwest wall represents an elk (see Plate 4). A buffalo track is superimposed below the eye of the elk, also the arrowshaft passing across the nose. Above the leg, note the deep tool-groove. Symbolic figures appear to the left.&#13;
&#13;
The northeast wall belongs to the cave proper. This panel extends for twenty-eight feet in length and to a depth of six feet from the present floor-level, with an extension of one and a half feet above.&#13;
&#13;
The main figures are the following, reading from right to left: (1) squares 5 and 6, buffalo track; (2) squares 8 and 9, female figure (See Plate 3); (3) squares 9 and 10, lower head that of a buffalo; (4) upper head of a mountain sheep; (5) squares 11, 12 and 13, a group of deep tool-grooves; (6) square 16, the head of an eagle; (7) square 17, a sage hen or grouse may be seen with arrowshaft thru body; (8) square 19, another mountain sheep head is easily recognized; (10) the final square, 32, shows more deep-tool-grooves.&#13;
