Jan Bartek - AncientPages.com - The petroglyphs of Sego Canyon in Utah resemble beings found in science fiction movies, but these figures are not modern inventions. These carvings were created thousands of years ago, and their alien-like appearance has led many people to wonder what their creators saw or thought at the time.
The study of petroglyphs is important because rock art provides a unique opportunity to view the world through the eyes of ancient people. By examining ancient rock art, we can gain a deeper understanding of how people perceived the world, and these images often held profound cultural and religious significance for the societies that created them.
Sometimes, petroglyphs can be easily deciphered, and archaeologists can determine if the ancient depictions served as astronomical markers, communication symbols, or even some form of writing. Several petroglyphs have baffled scientists because the beings depicted on the walls do not resemble humans.
Some of the most unusual and mysterious petroglyphs can be found in Utah. Located north of Thompson Springs, Sego Canyon, also known as Book Cliffs and Thompson Wash, has a rich history, and here we can admire rock art from the Archaic period.
