ROCK ART OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN by Campbell Grant.
This book surveys the myriad rock paintings and carvings--numbering possibly some
15,000 sites--pecked into and painted onto boulders and rock surfaces throughout North
America by its aboriginal artists. With photographs and drawings on virtually every page,
this book presents the rock artists through the work they left--illustrating their
extraordinarily diverse techniques, styles, and subjects. Meanings of the designs are
discussed, and their roles in hunting or puberty rites interpreted. Major rock art sites
are located, and methods of recording, preserving, and dating them are indicated. Author
Grant has done rock art books on the Chumash Indians, the Coso Range, and Canyon de
Chelly. 192 pages + 16 page color insert. Large-format. See sample pages, illustrations.
