Piney Creek Site
In short
The richest petroglyph site in Illinois – a sandstone outcropping with some 150 petroglyphs. These signs were created sometime between 450 and 1550 AD. Drawings show a man with a spear, animals, and winged people. Most likely these drawings are linked to some mystical rituals.
