Fate Bell Shelter
The Fate Bell shelter is located in the desolate Seminole Canyon in the lower Pecos River area and was home to the hunter/gathers for over 10,000 years in this extreme hostile land. The shelter is over 150 yards long (more than 1 1/2 times a football field) and 40 feet deep. It is about 10 degrees cooler in the shelter than in the canyon. It contains the oldest pictographs over 4,000 years old( that date back to 2,500 BC) in the American continents. Its primary style is the Pecos River Polychrome style but it also contains Red Linear style pictographs as well. Enjoy this journey back in time. Emile
