Two Calendar Sites

The V Bar V Heritage Site is well known and visited by thousands of people each year.  It's the best Verde Valley place to ponder petroglyphs and wonder about how The Ancient Ones kept track of celestial time.

We went to V Bar V this year to listen to renowned amateur archaeologist Ken Zoll talk about how he deciphered the role of the markings as  "calendar site."  A few days later we found a spot within an hour of Rimrock that we're also confident served the same function.

All these photos were first put up on Facebook but we've cross posted them here so we will always have easy access to them.

Here are the direct links to the two albums:
