Fremont Indian State Park
Fremont Indian State Park submitted by Alta-Falisa : FREMONT PETROGLPHS Petroglyphs (etching in rocks) created, it is believed, by the Fremont people which lived in the area approximately from AD 600 - 1300.

Rock Ancient Settlement and Visitor Centre in Sevier County, Utah.
One thousand years ago, the valleys along what is now Interstate 70 near Sevier, Utah were home to the largest community of Fremont Indians ever discovered. Their rock art and structures are still visible in the canyons of Fremont Indian State Park. A film, artifacts, hands-on activities, rock art tours, and exhibits reveal the lives of these Fremont Indians.

The site was discovered during construction of Interstate 70, and thousands of artifacts have been excavated from the ancient village and put on permanent display at the museum there. The museum also offers hiking trails and picnic areas.

The Fremont Indians were agriculturalists who lived from about 400 to 1300 in north and central Utah and adjacent parts of Colorado, Idaho and Nevada. The Fremont are thought to have come from hunter-gatherers who previously lived in this location and were influenced by the Ancient Pueblo Peoples who introduced corn and pottery, making year-round settlements possible.

The location given corresponds to the Museum / Information Centre, not to the items shown in the following photos.
