Atlatl petroglyph on marble, although another interpretation is a shepherd's staff. Swansea, California
Paiute people, age undetermined
There may be two solar interactions with this petroglyph. The fall equinox sunset's final shadow falls along the top of the crook, and the winter solstice sunrise's shadow touches the bottom of the staff.
