Western Archaic Tradition petroglyphs date to at least several thousand years B.C., and possibly as many as 9,000 years B.C.. As a “style,” it is widely distributed; indeed, it is nearly universal in distribution, and its designs are probably rooted in the biology of our brains. It is much less common than its more recent counterparts in the Silver Creek region.
Through the centuries, the style of Fremont art evolved, possibly reflecting profound changes in their society. Early art known as the Barrier Canyon style featured corn stalks and “CarrotMen,” anthropomorphic forms with floating triangular bodies wearing mystical headdresses, revealing a reverence for agriculture and ritual.
It is said, that the image of this simple, yet elegant design, represents the Great Egret or Heron.
The true meaning of the whole picture with the circle on the side is yet unknown, however there are quite a few symbolic meanings of the bird itself. In the more mystical circles the Great Egret it represents purity, strength, balance, concentration, longevity, and piety. Because they tend to enjoy solitude, their spirit also represents freedom and independence.
