Albuquerque, New Mexico,  USA, Oct 1, 2021: designs and symbols carved on Volcanic Rocks in Petroglyph National Monument.
Nearly a thousand years ago natives inhabited the lower elevations around the San Francisco Peaks of Arizona.  In an area so dry it would seem impossible to live, they built pueblos, harvested rainwater, grew crops and raised families.  Today the remnants of their villages dot the landscape along with their other artifacts.  These petroglyphs were found on Magnetic Mesa in Wupatki National Monument near Flagstaff, Arizona, USA.

Driekopseiland (Island) is a rock engraving site located in the bed of the Riet River near Plooysburg, close to Kimberley, Northern Cape, South Africa. At this site, nearly 4,000 exposed individual engravings are carved into glaciated basement rock. It is estimated that the petroglyphs were probably engraved in two distinct periods, the first about 2500 years ago, and the latter more or less 1000 years ago. The engravings at Driekopseiland are associated with cultural rituals and more specifically with puberty rites,
