You're a good man if that coyote trusted you.
That coyote was waiting to see if he was going to die,, so it could have lunch
@@wonyankeesays5661 Coyotes are skittish around humans.

I sat with a bear 🐻 in a cave once.
Thank You! I Love visiting pertroglyph sites. I live in Sweden and we have petroglyphs here as well, carved into granite, some of them more than 3000 years ago. But I really Love to come back to New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona and S. California and go looking for them. This short film really reminded me of some places between Pheonix and Tucson. I Love the way you did this. Thank you for your generosity. I hope to get back in the Fall. Blessings
Oh I love this one the most. Please keep this location a secret or they'll be gone. Thank you for sharing this place. Very moving to see the signs of The Old Ones.
It’s obviously not a secret, did you miss the trail marker signs all throughout the video?
The older cultures had the same needs and tendencies as us "modern" people, therefore many petroglyphs and pictographs are located in or near the same places we inhabit. But I share your concern because they are vulnerable to vandalism. I do know where there are such sites that remain largely unknown, and found some substantial sites last year that are so hidden that I might be one of the few to have seen them since ancient times. But they are not on beaten paths, and are overgrown and hidden in rugged terrain.
Nicely done video and as others mentioned in their comments, it's nice that you keep the location a secret to try and avoid the vandalism of these historical sites. I am in my 70's now and love the desert, in my younger years I travelled in my 1986 Jeep CJ7 all over and what is interesting as you already know, is that a lot of these symbols/petroglyphs are repeated throughout the Mojave Desert and elsewhere. Apparently this area didn't have Big Horn sheep or maybe you saw those Petroglyphs, but didn't show them. A lot of the symbols are repeated throughout the desert regions, so there must be some standardization in their meaning. Thank you again for a nice and interesting video. Happy trails...
Winter best time to explore the desert.
super cool - appears to be some repeating patterns/themes there and mostly symbol, rather than picture type images. Love the coyote story, maybe it wasn't just any coyote, but Coyote "the trickster"? :) Thanks for the vid sir.
Hi ❤ I’m an person who loves and appreciates, grew up in and loves again in the SW ( Phoenix area). I love Coyote. And I love the way you shared those images with the music at the end, with out it.. I could not have.. seen them the same way on video.
Something given like this, how ever long ago… it was done in a certain way.. the only way to really receive it in video as it was given when it was created is just how you did it. Taking over those would have ruined it.. or watching you walk in between them.
Very well done, very in tune. Thank you 🙏
Love Petroglyphs. 6 years ago our daughter took us to Parowan gap. I was hooked. We now live in So. Utah and love to explore. Thanks for sharing.
There's many more places close to Parowan gap that have petroglyphs
Thank you for sharing this with all of us. Very entertaining and interesting stuff@
Fascinating. Thank you so much for your videos, brings back wonderful memories and seeing what’s changed and what hasn’t, in 30 years is so amazing! Can’t wait for more videos. ❤
There is a similar place in New Mexico called Three Rivers Petroglyphs north east of White Sands. There are an estimated 21,000 petroglyphs on a ridge. People are free to walk around the area.
Beetles make those holes.
I live in British Columbia,but own a couple of lots near Yucca Arizona
I really appreciate you as you are a such type of man who enlighten us about the unknown to our knowledge. I enjoy a lot---------- From EASTERN INDIA THANKS.
Love the petroglyphs! Thanks for sharing.
At 4:48 you have a nice panel of petroglyphs. Those are unique for me. You also reveal mechanical weathering at it’s finest. What a complex fracture as this slab stayed in place. Heat and cold unrelenting over the years. Well, I wasn’t there so it could have happened suddenly, but I digress.
Nice desert varnish on one of the three major types of lava.
Hey DT, have you checked out Florine Lawlor OFLV AaDA?
Yes, I am speaking in code and playing Johnny Cash’s “I’ve been everywhere man”as a dedication to DT.
Amazing!!! !!!!!!!!!
Edited to add exclamation points. Not enough. Better now;)
Cool area thanks for taking us along. Love exploring the desert
Young people, teenagers. They explored just outside of their Huts and would draw just to past their day, after their chores were done... Pottery shards are always nearby, revealing the Camp sites. The very nice drawings are by an Adult to get them started, and for them to practice.
Stunning!
Thanks for taking us along!
Excellent petroglyphs, I could look at them all day💚
Fascinating
Cool video and tale about brother Coyote sharing the shade with you....
That was a treat 🤗 and great coyote story!
Thanks for the very interesting field trip!
Imzackson sent me over. Very cool video brother of the glyphs! Greetings from Apache Junction AZ⛏🇺🇸
What a great video! Thank you for sharing. I live in Utah and often see petroglyphs in my travels around the southwest. Are you aware of any resources where one can translate their meaning?
would love to know too?
There are mostly crackpots hypothesizing at "free lectures". They go out into the desert and get their brains cooked. Lol
Oh thank you for sharing this ❤️
Reminds me of a place in New Mexico
The stories they were telling. Wish we new what they were.
Very cool video..thank you!👍
Awsome video, the montage was great. Remember our satellite communicators won't work with cloud coverage... That hit me the other day, thought I'd share.
The music you play whilst showing the Petroglyphe Symbols is very apt. Kind of reflects the mood of a people who lost everything and carved their memories into the stones in the area they had to relocate to.
Bro! Awesome video! Where exactly us this at?! Love to check it out!!
The dead rabbit with the arrow is a great petro. Love the coyote story.
At 4:28 there is a cross with circle at the ends of each line. I have seen a very similar looking one in Nevada. There does seem to be similarities all over. Hawaii and even Guam. Obviously no evidence of contact but they must have seen the same things in the night sky.
Very Kool man , thanks for sharing ! ✔️👍😎
See lots of petroglyphs, was curious about seeing the “text” that never appeared, thanks for showing the glyphs tho..
I like the new direction, mine ex is great but l'm sure you enjoy the other desert facets. Thanks for bringing us along
Might you host some Meetup hikes out to the places you show on this channel? I'd love to come down and traipse around that region.
I have noticed in my 60+ years of roaming the southwest that there are two distinct versions of petroglyphs, with very little cross over between the two. I suppose that means two different people or times (maybe both). The most common ones I call Paiute, because that is what most scientists say they are. The second, I call old Jewish ( just my name for them, because they look like old Jewish petroglyphs I’ve seen. I’m in no way suggesting they came from Jewish people, just that is what they reminded me of). I have seen some places where there are both, but never intermixed on the same rock face. It’s as if two different cultures wrote the same thing down in two different languages. Most often, the old Jewish ones look older.
Lost tribe? We're the Phukawe.
Can you describe further a couple distinctions between the two types?
I was able to read one of the gliffs. It said. . . . bed, and breakfast, heated pool, loose slots,
Buffet daily, kids 10 and under eat free!
Valet parking for you dinosaur. All for one pelt per night! Watch for the signs at exit 51!
Good videos! 😎👍
That Coyote story is AWESOME
Those H-shaped designs at the beginning of the montage reminded me of the Puma Punku stone blocks.
Very interesting, have never seen many of these petroglyphs.
Good video, hope people keep enough respect so they stay for others to keep seeing.
Thank you.
Well done😎⭐️🤩
I know that place. It's incredible.
Been there done that. Yes cool place would never tell anyone where it is.😊
Love the montage!
These look like they could have been made not to long into the past.
Amazing
A couple of clear images of the old sailing ships. You must be in California. Interesting stuff.
You are…….. incredible ❤
Coyote usually don't get around people. It must of had close contact too people for it too start trusting them. It will sure be in for a suprise when it comes up to somebody and they shoot it.
Maybe some mad dude came and carve that petroglyphs, recently.
amazing.....
4:43 - an attacking Triceratops ? ... incredible
So when you were sheltering under that Joshua tree with the coyote - did you offer it some water? Could have made a friend for life.
What`s a technique of this rock art? what was used to draw them? It was obviously created already on crashed stone pieces, because no one of visible compositions are interrupted - they all are complete and adjusted to the certain shape of the stone. But those stone piles are even more interesting than petroglyphs they are holding. Is there known any background about their origin?
Just curious if you've reversed the contrast on your pics? In a few it seems like I see things in the areas left unmarked. Think like you want white letters have a white paper but only a black pen. The areas that would be ink can hold subliminal style images at times.
One looks like a roadrunner😊. Have seen petroglyphs but exploring days are over.😢
Very cool yes don’t tell anyone where it is unless you know them well, I never do that’s for sure🌵😎
Odd why they'd make rectangular pictographs when rectangles & straight lines were seldom in seen in nature. No humans or animals real obvious, either.
Where we're all them rocks taken from ? They were obviously taken from somewhere else and dumped there. Some of those petroglyphs are upsidedown and broken up. There are probably many more that can't be seen. That's terrible that they were destroyed like that !
Petroglyphs awesome.
This is great makes one wonder WHY this spot and how old are they 🇺🇸🤔
Interesting how at 3:03 their glyph nearly looks like our 3 in English, but has a little extra on the end.
Run into Gly Coolness yet? He's out there in Nevada and Arizona exploring mines. Abandoned and Forgotten Places.
Sometime before Europeans;
"Where is that boy? He's supposed to be learning to hunt!"
"Oh he's over there scratching on rocks again. They call it GRAFFITI."
What's the bet it say, "Help, we're Lost" in Caveman Glyphs....
dang it i wish the audio was better so i could hear it
Those little diggings might be an insect, scorpion or a little animal like a mouse?
And if you put all the pieces together correctly, you get the plans for intergalactic travel...
Music?
The ancient education system must have been local to be successful. How did the ancient desert dwellers make notation of their music? Notched sticks to record the intervals might not have been widely available in the desert. How did they teach mathematics?
The rock looks super hard !
Any arrow heads?
Anasazi art is both glyphic and whimsical.
"Kilroy was here" messages go back a long way in spirit if not text. Wonder which one of the glyphs might be a Kilroy . . . { : )
You might want to be very careful about sticky your hand or fingers into those "diggings" because from what I can see they look a lot like scorpion holes.
Where
If a person wants to convey a message to the generations that follow them stone is a good way. However one language would be more likely to be lost to time than using several languages for the lasting purpose of understanding
What is known about them?
Is there any knowledge of what any of that means??
Where are you?
Some hippies done that in the 1970s. How dare they. St.Paul.
What about the rocks themselves? Do you not see characters? I see many.
Then there are those other cartoon characters, at 5:24 look bottom left to the pictograph, then at 5:39.:I'm telling ya, I see these cartoon like dudes everywhere...sometimes as rocks, sometimes as etchings, and sometimes like " lichen paint" as they are here. Do you see what I'm talking about ? They are way more sophisticated art than petroglyphs.
Find the tunnels dug all throughout the PW from Alaska/Canada down to Arizona/Mexico/Texas by the workers they’d bring in from dif countries (another form of human trafficking)
Is the rock basalt?
Maybe…the coyotes drew them 🤔 😄😉
Those rocks are not natural to that location. The broken rocks with the picture glyphs were placed there. Guessing there may be a man made worksite nearby. Or at least there was a worksite at some point.
Wish we knew what they mean.
repressentions of what they saw. plasma/ electrical sprites
Are you sure it wasn't peyote not coyote j/k
It could be Naga glyphs . Thanks 🙏👍
Why don't you 4 wheel to there?
The little diggings are pack rats and kangaroo mice looking for seeds and roots....
Wife and I were there last fall. Nothing mysterious, just images from the past.
As many of those look like old tires, they must have forseen the lord of the dump, Zip Ties and Bias Plies
And added their own graffiti. I live near and regularly hike on in and around several lava flows. This is graffiti. Get out some history books and look at actually petroglyphs, and look at the common way they're drawn. Not like these
You walk by an informative sign and didn't stop and show the sign , ya think someone watching your video might possibly want to read that sign ?
Maybe ya...
🙂👍
