thank you for not talking! Thank you for respecting your audience enough to let them make up their own minds about what they’re seeing seeing. Thank you for dwelling on each image long enough for me to actually SEE it. Very well done!

I am Navajo and was told by elders that these depict the Yei or Holy or Star People. Our sand paintings have similar entities .

This music and montage really let the imagination wander all around. I love it. ❤

I hope these pictographs are well protected and preserved. I saw some petroglyphs in Southern Alberta at Writing-On-Stone Provincial Park, and they were beautiful. Some were destroyed by tourists before security measures were put into place, and it was disgusting to see the vandalism. DO NOT TOUCH SACRED SITES.

I love that you share the artwork, without words. Your music choice was perfect

This is another video that I keep coming back to periodicly. It's mind blowing and extremely haunting.

Im from Australia, ive seen similar entities in rock paintings here. Many more still remain undiscovered. Great video.

This was really cool. I’ve seen all these before with somebody talking over trying to explain what they thought they were, but I liked how this was silent and you can just get a good glimpse and decide what you think for yourself is going on. Thank you.

Beautiful, full of silent knowledge of these beings, such a calm mood! Lovely music too!

The lack of talking really made this. Thank you

I hiked to some 5000+ year old petroglyphs in a remote part of southern Utah. It was insane how off the beaten path they were and also how sacred the the place felt.

Peter being interested in astronomy, shows us the close ups of these pictographs as distant galaxies from our collective past. Beautifully presented. Thank you, Peter 🙏

[AhJodie]

These are eerie, and intricate, and somehow remind me of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, but in a different language. I love them, thank you for posting!

Wonderful video from beginning to end - GREAT examples and VERY high production values. Thanks!

[Blah-in]

I see insectoids, robots, drones, spaceships, goat men/ET with helmet antennas. Flying insects buzzing around one of insectoids' antennas due to the static electricity and radio signals.
Great collection Peter! Thanks!

I like to imagine some of these were painted in front of an audience, maybe children, to help impart the legends of the past. It must have been amazing to listen to these stories around a fire, and watch them unfold on the cave walls. I envy the deep sense of wonder these people must have had…

[matheuss]

Idk why but this is deeply eerie and unsettling and yet awe inspiring and amazing at the same time...

Communication. Many voices. Telling us that history may not be what we think it is. Thanks for the beauty and the mystery.

This is a beautiful presentation for meditation and human reflection.

Thank you.

I love how the animals are pretty accurate in these, while the people are look like completely different beings.
