Summary: Located in the Monument Valley and accessible on a Navajo tour, the Anasazi Suns Eye petroglyph site features a number of bighorn sheep.

The Suns Eye petroglyph site is at the base of a tall cliff, near the Suns Eye Arch, in the Monument Valley backcountry.

The petroglyphs are from the Anasazi culture, a Native American culture that spanned the present-day Four Corners region of the United States from about about AD 100 to 1600. The motifs depict primarily bighorn sheep.

The Suns Eye petroglyphs in Monument Valley are only accessible with a Navajo Guide. Many of the Monument Valley tours stop here to look at the petroglyph site and rock formations.

Aboriginal Sites by National Park

Over a hundred Aboriginal sites have been recorded in the Hornsby region, with many of these in the Berowra Valley National Park and around the suburb of Berowra.
Over 40 sites have been recorded within the park; many were located along the river bank and were flooded by the building of the weir in 1938.
