Painted Rock Petroglyphs Site, Arizona


The Painted Rock Petroglyph Site is located in the heart of the Arizona Sonora Desert in Central Arizona. It is relatively close to the almost always dry Gila River and not too far from Gila Bend. It is one of a number of sites in Arizona with high concentrations of petroglyphs. There is an almost endless number of books and articles speculating on the meaning of the petroglyphs but although some of them may have been interpreted correctly, the vast majority of these ubiquitous rock carvings are unknown. Think about the speculation in the future of the graffiti that covers so many buildings and structures in the United States.
