Arguably the most spectacular rock art site in the South West, the Great Gallery is the type site for Barrier Canyon Style (BCS) art. It was first recognized here as a unique artistic style. Rock art is notoriously hard to date and BCS art age estimates range from Archaic (4,000-8,000 BP) to pre Fremont (500 BCE-500 CE). The National Park Service has a free booklet on the archaeology of Horseshoe Canyon that puts the date for BCS production at around 2,000 BCE.
Details about the making the model are here on the Ancient Art Archive website.
