[Aztlan] BOCA DE POTRERILLOS PETROGLYPH SITE TO OPEN

[michael ruggeri]

Listeros,

The Boca de Potrerillos petroglyph zone in Nuevo Leon, Mexico has  
more than 700 petroglyphs representing  an occupation of the site by  
hunter-gatherers going back to 10,000 BCE. The site is oriented to  
the cardinal directions and functions as a solar horizon calendar.  
INAH will open part of the site to the public in 2009 and the public  
will be able to view 500 of the petroglyphs at the site.

INAH has posted an article on the opening of the site to the public  
here;
