A WEEK IN WEST TEXAS
SHUMLA’s research team and Dr. Jim Keyser have launched a comparative study of scratched and incised imagery evidenced in the rock art of the Lower Pecos Canyonlands and the Columbia Plateau. This year, participants in Pecos Experience have the unique opportunity to join these experts as they investigate this promising new avenue of rock art research. This is your chance to explore the canyons of the Lower Pecos, to expand your vision of the meaning and function of rock art, and to experience the excitement of making connections through discovery.
