Sego Canyon Pictographs


This is an example of a pictograph. A pictograph is rock art that is painted on rather than carved or pecked. Rock art that is carved or pecked is a petroglyph. This is one of several panels located just north of Interstate 70 near Thompson, Utah. Some researchers feel that some of these symbols at Sego Canyon resembe Aztec symbols. In fact this area of Utah is one of the areas of the southwestern United States being considered for the location of the mysterious Aztlan.
