Petroglyphs on Atlatl Rock, a landmark in Valley of Fire State Park, Nevada. An Atlatl (spear thrower) is depicted just under the topmost sheep figure on the right.

Unfortunately, modern human beings could not resist to deface this site by scratching their names and other things into the natural rock varnish. Sigh.

Photographed during my road trip in October 2026.
