Living under a Rock

 The wheels on the truck spun over the sand as we headed toward the vast wilderness.  After we dismounted at the end of the road we headed up the sandy stream bed to find an Indian site.  Fighting the cats claw we finally got to the extremely large rocks.  As we got close Kadizzle found the first pot shard, and there under the rock were a lot of large pot shards.  Six hundred years ago natives were camping or living under this rock.  Most unusual were the markings on the ceiling. In this part of the world you do not find many pictographs.  However, this find had a good deal of them.  There were faded hand prints, the traditional spiraling circle and some that appeared to be distorted human figures.  Finding an Indian site you will never be the first one.  It is not impossible, but would be extremely rare. People have combed every inch of the planet.  At this site the pot shards were gathered together on top of a rock. That means others had been there before.  Once in awhile a person does come across a single pot or two that have been hidden somewhere.  It would be exciting.  Any decent person finding such a thing would leave it alone and report the finding to the proper people.  Hunting pot shards is a hobby Kadizzle enjoys.  One thing he has found is that shards are like gold they move downhill. If you find a small rivulet with a pot shard more than likely you can follow it uphill to an Indian ruin.  Well the sun is blasting over the campsite and the day will begin.
