  (4g) Petroglyph Hill, N.M. The reader should take notice here of some of the methods of occulted symbolism used in the ancient glyph art. In the following images one can see how the mushroom was made a part of the body of the deity being pictured. At Horseshoe Barrier Canyon Utah, we see the classic thunderbird of Native American lore (3a). This is an image of a mushroom as the bird goddess as she is also depicted in glyphs throughout New Mexico (3b, e, g, j). This same bird goddess is depicted at Lower Pecos River, Seminole Canyon State Park and Historic Site, Comstock, Texas, dated to an estimated 2500 BC (6e), as well as glyphs from Desolation Canyon Utah dated from 100 to 1300 AD (6d). This mushroom/bird goddess can also be found in Siberia (6a) and Saudi Arabia (6c).   R: (3b) Three Rivers, New Mexico. c. 100-1300 AD L: (3e) N.M.   R: (3g) Private Land Near Galisteo, N.M. |
