SUMMARY:Saturday with a Scientist: Recording Rock Art
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered how scientists are able to preserve 4\,000-year-old rock art? \nJoin David Keim\, a Preservation Archaeologist with Shumla Archaeological Research & Education Center\, to learn more about rock art of the Lower Pecos Canyonlands. These ancient murals are among the most remarkable narratives of the ancient world\, offering a glimpse into the lives and beliefs of the people who created them thousands of years ago. Discover how this rock art is meticulously recorded and studied\, and what preserving it means for the future. Create your own rock art-inspired sketches and learn how scientific data can be collected from your creation. \nHead to the Witte Museum for Saturday with a Scientist: Recording Rock Art in the Nancy Smith Hurd Rock Art Lab. \nContinue your journey into the world of rock art by visiting Mary Virginia Carson: Pioneer Artist Capturing Rock Art with Watercolors to see how artistry and observation connect us with stories from thousands of years ago. \nThis event is included with General Admission.

The White Shaman mural\, painted thousands of years ago\, illustrates the lifeway and belief systems of the now-gone hunter-gatherer society. \nMore about the White Shaman Preserve and the Witte \nPricing: \n\nMembers: $35\nNon-Members: $40\n\nTour Difficulty: (Strenuous) There is a 250-foot descent into a narrow brushy canyon and the trail is steep with loose rocks and uneven footing.
