| The turtle-like figure at right is a variation on a theme that is found wherever the Pecos River style is painted. A circular or oval-bodied figure with fringes, or hairy appendages, appears to be gliding or paddling through water. Two parallel lines crossed by two perpendicular bars, often with the oval that identifies the bars as darts, are the distinguishing characteristics of this mythical figure. Its wide distribution suggests that it represents a being well known to the viewing public of its time. |
