Art By the Women of the Ice Age
The images in this book are from my book Mammoth Hunters inOklahoma, newly discovered little walls of rock art. The rocks are from my yard. A landscaper delivered small decorative rocks to cover my new french drains. Among them I found 100 or moreartifacts carved and/or painted. Then I discovered a 12-inch mammoth sculpture weighing 33 pounds in my yard. It was covered with tinyimages and scenes. With so many images of mammoth profiles in therocks, I discerned they must have been carved during the Ice Age, before 12,800 years ago. I realized much of the art work was done by women based on theirsubject matter—sewing, clothing, children, food, etc. The woman on the cover is wearing a jeweler’s loupe on one eye as shesits in my yard creating tiny images on the mammoth sculpture.
