The Bighorn Basin holds one of the richest complexes of petroglyphs (carved images) and pictographs (painted images) in the Americas. Produced by a broad diversity of peoples, these expressions reflect distinct ways of understanding and engaging both water and rock features, as well as other people, over the course of thousands of years. Plains Indian Museum Curator, Dr. Gordon Ambrosino, provides an overview of the Bighorn Basin’s rock art, shares insights on how it compares to other significant rock art regions in the Western Hemisphere, and outlines forthcoming plans for exhibitions, research, and community engagement relating to the images of the Bighorn Basin.
