- In Episode 4 of our Virtual Tour Video Series, we are taking you on an extensive tour of Wells Petroglyph Preserve located in northern New Mexico, hosted by Previous Owner and Founder Katherine Wells and Preserve Archaeologist Chester Liwosz. You will get a special glimpse of some of the rock art panels scattered across the Preserve along with the archaeological theories behind some of the reoccurring images. The site is known for having solstice markers and is thought to contain special acoustical attributes that may have been part of the context for the multiple human and animal flute player images across the site. Mesa Prieta contains a variety of rock art panels dating as far back as the Archaic period up to the early 20th century when the Work Projects Administration crews were working in the river valley below.
Katherine purchased the property in 1992 and founded the Mesa Prieta Petroglyph Project in 2002, which set out on the lofty task of documenting all of the petroglyphs across the entire mesa. The Project has recorded around 70,000 images so far - and it is estimated that there are at least another 30,000 that still need to be recorded.

Running Time: approx. 1 hour 4 minutes in Full HD

I hope the Mesa gets lidared and the petroglyphs get high resolution lidar so they are preserved and additional features can be seen and studied.
I’m very grateful for people like Y’all who take your time to make these educational pieces of work. Keep it up. I think it was nice that You added the flutes in the background especially in relation to the music related art & also how those places were possibly used for music. Keep it up. Positive Vibes Your Way!!!!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are so happy you enjoyed the tour. We have two new tours in production now, so stay tuned!
Amazing place!!🥰
Stunning site. I feel privileged to have seen this site and to have met Katherine Wells.
At a point in the near future, someone should photograph this area using a different light source or two, such as ultraviolet to "see" past the patina. It would be difficult night work, but we could gain a great deal of information.
I love your programs. Thank you so much!
Some petroglyph ment to bee seen from several miles away at 2 to 4 pm on sunny summer afternoon looking east
How about a fertility bump in the front. Look at the feet. The flute is her braid?
How about turn of the audio so we can hear the man in blue jacket!! 😂
Check the music, it does not add to the mystic
You mean "mystique." You're entitled to your own opinion but I think you go too far in telling somebody else how to produce their video. Live your own life and don't be a Karen, bro.
MISSING AUDIO!!! But lots of background flute music. What a waste of an otherwise good video.
Hello, Gordon. The audio is definitely there. I wonder if you have broken speaker or maybe you're hearing it in mono instead of stereo. It is also closed captioned, if you are still having an issue. You can turn on the subtitles that will coincide with the narrative audio.
The spoken audio begins quite a bit later than the flute music. And it's very informative.
Stolen land
You have proof or do you just assume?
Distracting music, adds nothing to the presentation.
I totally disagree.
