| Ancient Pictograph, southern Utah. When it was first brought to public attention, this amazing pictograph was thought to be a prankster's hoax. While many Anasazi artists used the mineral Hematite to produce red colors and other minerals for white, the blue paint of this creation is quite extraordinary. And the striking resemblance to the American flag is beyond extraordinary. While directly dating these ancient paintings is very difficult, subsequent studies revealed this work of art to be nearly 900 years old. All photos in these galleries may be ordered as fine art framed prints or for stock photography usage. |
