description Painted Rocks Intaglios Overview

The Painted Rocks Intaglios are a group of pre-Columbian ground figures located near Gila Bend, Arizona, within the broader Painted Rocks Petroglyph Site. Created by scraping away the dark, desert-varnished surface rocks to reveal the lighter sediment beneath, these figures are associated with the Patayan and Hohokam cultural traditions. The site is more widely known for its extensive collection of petroglyphs, which are rock carvings rather than earth constructions. Together, the intaglios and petroglyphs represent a significant cultural and archaeological landscape situated along the historic route of the Gila River.
