	Nomadics Tipi Makers :: Pictograph & Shaman Figures
		Pictograph refers to the rock art that was created by actually painting on large rock surfaces.
		We believe that the purpose of the rock art was not to portray the exact physical form of an animal or spirit being, but rather to capture and communicate the spiritual essence or life force of the subject itself.
		In the soft, sparse colors and the clean, simple lines of pictograph art the inner essence of the animal beings seems to have retained the haunting, timeless beauty of their spiritual origins.

	Supernova Pictograph (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The pictograph shown on this slide was painted on a horizontal overhang six meters off the ground, located on an East-facing cliff face five hundred meters Northeast of the ruin Peñnasco Blanco, in Chaco Canyon (see Slide 2).
		These calculations also indicate that at dawn on 5 July 1054 in the American Southwest, the moon was within 3 degrees of the supernova, and its crescent oriented as on the pictograph (provided the pictograph is viewed looking up with one's back to the cliff, as the authors of the pictograph most likely did).
		With the apparent width of the moon being about half a degree, this pictograph comes basically as close as it possibly could to being a true scale rendition of the 1054 supernova seen in conjunction with the waning moon.
