The panel contains more than 800 high quality elements attributable to many different traditions -- Desert Archaic, Ancestral Pueblo, Fremont, Ute, Navajo, and historic Euro-American. Recent detailed recordation and analysis has provided new insights into the history of the panel and the various traditions represented by the images.
