Petroglyph Rubbing2003-52/WA16

Petroglyph rubbing on webril with dark green ink. From: "Descriptive Catalogue of Petroglyph Prints for the University of Washington from the Dalles Dam Reservoir, 1956" by Mark Hedden. "Masklike face. Eyes as simple circles with two lineur (sic) lines extending to the jaw. Mouth indicated by straight line across arc of lower jaw, with teeth marked. Other features include 'pitcher' ears with lineur (sic) extentions, short series of rays (hair?) along top of head outline, surmounted in turn by a curious 'crown', consisting of a ladder with sides forming a trapezoid. A unique abstraction appears adjacent, a segmented device or ladder design with rounded sides. (Compare this design with 'Tunghat' masks from Alaska. Petroglyphs from Wyoming (Smi. Rept.))

Petroglyph Rubbing2003-52/WA6

Petroglyph rubbing on Webril with brown and green ink. From: "Descriptive Catalogue of Petroglyph Prints for the University of Washington from the Dalles Dam Reservoir, 1956" by Mark Hedden. "Seal-head (?) carved in full relief on outcrop of bedrock. Body is not carved, but the natural formation of the rock is utilized in such a way that it appears as the body of a seal lying prone. The head is made distinct by a deeply cut groove or collar. The eyes are round & bulging with a circular groove located above & behind each eye, very much in the manner of the 'horns' of a carved Mt Sheep's head found in Wakemap Mound. The mouth, likewise, is a short groove with no teeth indicated. The many similarities of this head with the Sheep/s head from Wakemap Mound, not only give a clue as to the probable age of the 'sealhead', but suggests that the two may be related in execution also. A characteristic of the Sheep or other carved heads from Wakemap is the rough & unfinished appearance of one end, generally battered in a manner that suggests it was used as a maul. This, with the collar, suggest, in turn, that, like the 'sealhead', the sheep's head may have been originally carved, in situ, from a large boulder and battered or broken off when completed.

Petroglyph Rubbing2003-52/BR88

Petroglyph rubbing on webril with black ink. K. Meyers 8/5/2003 From "Descriptive Catalogue of Petroglyph Prints for the University of Washington, from The Dalles Dam Resevoir, 1956." by Mark Hedden, located in the Archaeology Archives: (On horizontal surface) Star with lineur (sic) rays & centered cricle. Bisected ovoid with rays. Simple circle. Nine (at least) standing figures, with fingers & toes marked (usually to the number of three), inlcuding six phallic or tailed figures, and, three with head enclosed by an arc or with extensions suggesting vaginas below outstretched legs. (Since the carvings are executed on a horizontal surface the vertical axis varies according to each individual design. This introduces a problem of interpretation, e.g. vaginas or head encircled by arcs?)
