Leo Petroglyph, Archaeological site in Ray, Ohio, United States
The Leo Petroglyph features 37 ancient carvings on a flat sandstone slab, including figures of humans, birds, footprints, fish, and snakes.
Native Americans from the Fort Ancient culture created these stone carvings approximately 1,000 years ago, leaving a record of their presence in Ohio.
The petroglyphs include a figure interpreted as a shaman wearing a headdress, reflecting the spiritual beliefs of early American Indian societies.
The site contains a protective shelter over the petroglyphs, a half-mile nature trail through a gorge, and several picnic tables for visitors.
The sandstone panel contains markings traced with charcoal to enhance visibility, allowing visitors to distinguish the original carvings more clearly.
