Parowan Gap Petroglyphs
This archeological site was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1969. The Petroglyphs displayed here represent the work of prehistoric Fremont and Southern Paiute cultures. The figures and drawings are likely the work of many different individuals over a long period of time. While the meaning of the figures may never be known, they probably portray such tribal pursuits as religion, hunting and gathering trips, family history, sources of water and travel routes.
