Summary

"Archaeologists Daniel Leen and Don Hann have joined forces to create this interesting and scientifically important volume on the rock art of the Harney Basin in southeastern Oregon. Hann, a U.S. Forest Service Archaeologist and Leen, an archaeologist and artist, describe the major sites in detail, interpret the imagery, and explain that the ancient drawings and carvings are likely the work of groups from both the Columbia Plateau and the Great Basin who used the Harney Basin throughout at least the last 5,000 years. Hann's knowledge of Blue Mountains/Harney Basin prehistory, coupled with Leen's tracings have produced a volume that will quickly become a classic for any student of western North American rock art." -- oregonarchaeological.org
