Rosy Canyon Petroglyph

This long panel is adjacent to a hole in the cliff that is, visible from the Cane Bed/Rosy Canyon Road.
Also view: Petroglyph Basket Site and Petroglyph Birthing Cave Explained that are nearby.
That hole was created by a cliff rock collapse. There are about eighty petroglyphs across three large panels. Most are human images, followed by animals and geometric patterns.
One glyph appears to be a family portrait of husband, wife and three or four children. To the lower right of that “selfi” is a snake image.
There is one image of Kokopelli (Ko Kah Pell E) playing his flute at this panel. Kokopelli spirit traces back thousands of years probably originating with the ancient Anasazi Indian culture. This humpback flute player has several forms, but they all have the basic humpback created by his seed backpack. On his head are a few feathers.
There are many images of him at the massive Sand Island petroglyph panel (Book 4). Usual his position is vertical, but occasionally on his back. He is found almost everywhere in the southwest especially near a Pueblo village of the Anasazi and recently at Hopi, Zuni, etc.
There are several different variations for the Kokopelli legend, but all have the same basic theme. He wandered from village to village with his magic flute, singing songs with a seed pack on his back. Everyone who listened to his songs was assured good luck and a fruitful life. Of course, also a healer and at times a trickster. Some gave him credit for season change from winter to spring planting season. He taught the village people how to plant the seeds (mainly corn). At night, as the people slept, he walked the fields playing his flute. In the morning, he would be gone traveling to the next village. Suddenly, corn would be several feet taller and many of the village women became pregnant.
As usual, do not touch or breath on this art panel as human oil and salt will ruin it. Don’t add any images – that is destruction.

Cool!!! I SEE a hairy man starting around 2 minutes in and to the right it looks like a jaguar. Not a cougar because it's face is more narrow. Thanks for sharing, can't wait to see more!
