Solid body human/spirit form variant from the Ipai Man form of Valllecito and other sites. Rock Art of Imperial County and Southern California.


A pictograph as it appears at the top of rock hill in an area in East San Diego County with at least 3 "solid" body sites within 2 miles of each other in 3 separate canyons.  At variance to the more commonly portrayed splayed extremities, fingers and toes.
After D-Stretch processing.  Granite has exfoliated at left elbow and left thigh.  Since the 3 sites are so close, I wonder if this is this a "sub-La Rumorosa" style or is it the work of a single artist.  Can other members think of other sites with this more "ordinary" portrayal of the a manlike/spirit form?  BTW, pictures are great and easy to do.  If you want to put into words other examples, please keep locations general.
