Petroglyph of a Shaman

There is no proof that this rock art above the doorway is really of a shaman or rain spirit, but the Ancestral Puebloan people were very spiritual and part of their daily life involved rites and rituals. Much of the art produced by the inhabitants of the great houses in the Four Corners region was symbolic of the spirits and forces they paid tribute to.
