Petroglyphs (also called rock engravings) are pictogram and logogram images created by removing part of a rock surface by incising, picking, carving, and abrading. Somehow the Wiki definition does not match the awe and inspiration you get when you see one of them in person.
This is a close up of one of the most incredible petroglyphs in the Eastern Sierras. It is incredibly fascinating to try to guess what these symbols are saying. This site was definitely on my bucket list. It is fitting that there is the culture around this site that in order to truly appreciate it you should find it yourself. I did a ton of research and my friends gave me hints but not the location. It built the anticipation to a peak s that when I first saw it my heart was pounding.
First expedition was not even close. A kind rock climber politely told me "Most people don't access that site from this direction". Translation; I was on the wrong freakin trail. I asked if she knew where it was and she just smiled at me. She then gave me the hint that turned out to be the most important tip I got. So I owe her a great debt of thanks.
Second expedition I found it. I had spent what seemed an eternity hoping rocks, scrambling down mini canyons but still no luck. Was getting frustrated that I was going to come up empty again. Then by chance, I looked to my left and there through a gap between two large rocks I saw the signature outcrop on the edge of the petroglyph that I seen so many times in pictures. For close to five minutes I just stood there looking, smiling with my heart pounding.
I now want to go back for a sunrise just after a heavy snow!
Comments and Favs greatly appreciated!
A letter is a grapheme in an alphabetic system of writing, such as the Greek alphabet and its descendants. Letters compose phonemes and each phoneme represents a phone (sound) in the spoken form of the language.
Written signs in other writing systems are best called syllabograms (which denote a syllable) or logograms (which denote a word or phrase).

The Petroglyph National Monument is a park running for 17 miles along the west mesa outside of Albuquerque, New Mexico. It features numerous natural resources including volcanoes, archeological sites and an estimated 24,000 carved images. Many of the images are recognizable as animals, people, brands and crosses; others are more complex. These images are inseparable from the cultural landscape, the spirits of the pueblo people who created and who appreciate them. Some areas of the park are off limits but the public can see some of the carvings and wildlife that the park supports. Petroglyphs (also called rock engravings) are pictogram and logogram images created by removing part of a rock surface by incising, picking, carving, and abrading. Dating back almost 1,000 years they were the "newspapers" of their time. The word "petroglyph" comes from the Greek words petro-, meaning "stone", and glyphein meaning "to carve". The local Navajo Indians call the area "Tsé Hane'é " which translates as :" the "rocks that tell stories" October 2006
漢字象形取物之形，
漢字本身就是圖，能夠直接表達涵義，是世界上最通行的表義文字，
象形字的山、水、日、氣，就是取自然環境的樣貌所描繪的字，
本作品運用國畫中常見的表現元素構成東方的山水意象，
將古老的漢字用現代的方式呈現，去除裝飾性強的部份，
意圖讓非漢語文化圈的觀看者能夠一眼明瞭:
「這就是漢字的圖文特質」。
A Chinese pictograph is a logogram used in writing with the forms of characters.
The Chinese pictogram is not only a picture to express the meaning of words but also an ideogram to be worldwide used.
Moreover,
the Chinese pictogram is described as the natural environment such as mountain, water, sun, and atmosphere.
This work used some elements of traditional Chinese painting to comprise the imagery of Eastern scenery with hills and waters.
Then, it used the modern composition to perform the traditional Chinese characters and to strike some parts with strong emotional decoration.
The purpose of this work is to perform the features of the Chinese characters and to express a clear image to all the viewers who live in the non-Eastern cultures.
Petroglyphs (also called rock engravings) are pictogram and logogram images created by removing part of a rock surface by incising, picking, carving, and abrading. Outside North America, scholars often use terms such as "carving", "engraving", or other descriptions of the technique to refer to such images. Petroglyphs are found world-wide, and are often associated with prehistoric peoples. The word comes from the Greek words petro-, theme of the word "petra" meaning "stone", and glyphein meaning "to carve", and was originally coined in French as pétroglyphe.
The term petroglyph should not be confused with pictograph, which is an image drawn or painted on a rock face. Both types of image belong to the wider and more general category of rock art. Petroforms, or patterns and shapes made by many large rocks and boulders over the ground, are also quite different.

Chinese characters are logograms used in the writing of Chinese and some other Asian languages. In Standard Chinese they are called Hanzi (simplified Chinese: 汉字; traditional Chinese: 漢字). They have been adapted to write a number of other languages including: Japanese, where they are known as kanji, Korean, where they are known as hanja, and Vietnamese in a system known as chữ Nôm. Collectively, they are known as CJKV characters. In English, they are sometimes called Han characters. Chinese characters constitute the oldest continuously used system of writing in the world. By virtue of their widespread current use in East Asia, and historic use throughout the Sinosphere, Chinese characters are among the most widely adopted writing systems in the world.
Chinese characters number in the tens of thousands, though most of them are minor graphic variants encountered only in historical texts. Studies in China have shown that functional literacy in written Chinese requires a knowledge of between three and four thousand characters. In Japan, 2,136 are taught through secondary school (the Jōyō kanji); hundreds more are in everyday use. There are various national standard lists of characters, forms, and pronunciations. Simplified forms of certain characters are used in China, Singapore, and Malaysia; the corresponding traditional characters are used in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and to a limited use in South Korea. In Japan, common characters are written in Japan-specific simplified forms (shinjitai), which are closer to traditional forms than Chinese simplifications, while uncommon characters are written in Japanese traditional forms (kyūjitai), which are virtually identical to Chinese traditional forms. In South Korea, when Chinese characters are used they are of the traditional variant and are almost identical to those used in places like Taiwan and Hong Kong. Teaching of Chinese characters in South Korea starts in the 7th grade and continues until the 12th grade where 1,800 total characters are taught albeit these characters are not really used in everyday life and are slowly declining in use.
In Old Chinese, most words were monosyllabic and there was a close correspondence between characters and words. In modern Chinese, characters do not necessarily correspond to words; indeed the majority of Chinese words today consist of two or more characters. Rather, a character almost always corresponds to a single syllable that is also a morpheme. However, there are a few exceptions to this general correspondence, including bisyllabic morphemes (written with two characters), bimorphemic syllables (written with two characters) and cases where a single character represents a polysyllabic word or phrase.
Modern Chinese has many homophones; thus the same spoken syllable may be represented by many characters, depending on meaning. A single character may also have a range of meanings, or sometimes quite distinct meanings; occasionally these correspond to different pronunciations. Cognates in the several varieties of Chinese are generally written with the same character. They typically have similar meanings, but often quite different pronunciations. In other languages, most significantly today in Japanese, characters are used to represent Chinese loanwords, to represent native words independent of the Chinese pronunciation, and as purely phonetic elements based on their pronunciation in the historical variety of Chinese from which they were acquired. These foreign adaptations of Chinese pronunciation are known as Sinoxenic pronunciations, and have been useful in the reconstruction of Middle Chinese.

The palace of king Darius I the Great in Persepolis was built by Darius, but only a small portion of the palace was finished under Darius' rule. It was completed after his death in 486 by his son and successor Xerxes, who called the house a Taçara, "winter palace", in Antiquity. Its ruins are immediately south of the Apadana.
Like many other parts of Persepolis, Tachara Palace has reliefs of tribute-bearing dignitaries. This palace was one of the few structures that escaped destruction in the burning of the complex by Alexander.
