Rock art and Settlement in the Owyhee Uplands of southeastern Oregon

Photo 16: Petroglyphs are located on basalt rim rock in the Owyhee Uplands. The area in front of the lower edge of the rim rock is often deeper soil.





Photo 17: Petroglyphs are also found on basalt boulders in the Owyhee Uplands. The boulders in this picture lie in a valley cut by an intermittent drainage.





Photo 18: This photograph shows a water tub located where an intermittent drainage forms a small break in the rim rock.





Photo 19: This segment of rock wall from 35ML850 follows the contour of the land and is placed between existing pieces of rim rock.





Photo 20: This is the edge of a rock circle that overlooks the shallow valley below 35ML1050.
