Revolutionary Interpretations of Coso Rock Art with Dr. Alan Garfinkel - Ep 37

This episode is a bit different. Dr. Garfinkel discusses and sketches his latest unpublished research into some new and rather revolutionary interpretations of Coso rock art. Coso rock art is located in eastern California and represents some of the greatest concentrations of rock art in the entire Western Hemisphere. It is surprisingly realistic and representational. We will dive into ancient archaic Utoaztecan religious thought and look at the relationships between Coso the American Southwest and into Mesoamerica!
