Roney’s Shelter

Location:


Pictographs depicting abstract and animal forms decorate rock shelters in the Guadalupe mountains. Ancestors who moved through the mountain range used these rocky overhangs, protected from the elements, to record their experiences and tell stories of their travels. By creating a visual story in pictographs, people passed along their knowledge of the world to those traveling with them and future passersby. Desert tobacco can still be found growing nearby these panels, suggesting that the artists were planting and using these plants in their storytelling.
