Spatial Patterns in Anthropomorphic Fremont Rock Imagery of Central UtahMerrill, Alyssa Pitts 20 June 2024 (has links) (PDF)
Rock imagery from the late Fremont period (1000-1300 AD) has captivated the interest of both professional and avocational researchers for the past century. In this thesis, I apply a highly systematized method of cataloguing and analysis to 482 anthropomorphs from Clear Creek Canyon (CCC) and Grand Staircase Escalante National Monument (GSENM). The primary theoretical assumption in this thesis is that the shapes used in anthropomorphic imagery convey ideas about how the Fremont saw people. I therefore recorded the head and body morphology and presence of arms, legs, and genitalia of each anthropomorph. By observing the data spatially, I discovered both intraregional and interregional patterns This research served to strengthen the argument that the Fremont people shared a common culture with regional variations.
