Recently,  I visited the LAS LABRADAS, a petroglyph site on the Pacific ocean of Mexico.   This is an absolute national wonder for the country, which has just recently been protected and rescued.    It is just 45 minutes north of Mazatlan, and the creation of the first PETROGLYPH MUSEUM in the State of Sinaloa has been established.   These black rocks on the ocean edge have recently been declared a national treasure. 

Called LAS LABRADAS… petroglyphs….There are over 400 art works sitting out on the shoreline, being beaten by the tide – some much better than others., very ANCIENT, dated many, many years before Christ.  The National Institute of History and Anthropology has begun putting effort and energy into the project.  It proves to be an absolute plus for the state of Sinaloa and the hidden pueblo of LA CHICAYOTA community. 

The symbols are beautiful but abstract in their expressions of the first inhabitants.  The meaning of the symbols and messages is unknown, although many of the symbols can be determined to be a male, female, or animal.  Perhaps it was a form of communication between those primitive people and their God or simply doodling by young and old alike.
