Intaglios

Stone sculptures on and in the earth symbolizing ways of life of the indigenous populations to that region. Some anthropologists believe they were built to amuse and entertain the gods. These are the Blythe Intaglios.    

They are made up of three locations. Included are a human figure at each and an animal figure at two of the locations. The largest human figure measures 171' from head to toe. Their age could be more than 2000 years, but they are at least 450 years old.

According to the Mohave and Quechan tribes of the Lower Colorado River, the human figures represent Mastamho, the creator of earth and all life. The animal figures represent Hatakulva, one of two mountain lions/persons who helped in the creation. In ancient times sacred ceromonial dances were held in the area to honor the creator of life.
