Witch's Nest, Prehistoric Petroglyphs, Walker County, Georgia 8

Witch's Nest is a small pocket in Pennsylvanian age Warren Point Sandstone. It is decorated with numerous faint prehistoric petroglyphs. The age of this artwork is unknown. The site has been know for many years and it has suffered some modern abuse. Someone tried to remove a section of decorated wall, without success I imagine. The sandstone, in the pocket, is very soft making it a good media for carving but it would crumble if chiseled on.
