petroglyphs created over 2000 years ago by the Anasazi who farmed along the Colorado River. There are many archeological sites on Lake Powell including the ruins of Defiance House in Iceberg Canyon. The Anasazi disappeared about 700 years ago and today the Navajo, Ute and Paiute Indian tribes have moved into what is now the Lake Power area. |
