On about August 31, 2018, site stewards and members of the YCC archaeology crew at Silver City’s Aldo Leopold Charter School discovered at least two separate locations of vandalism at the beloved Dragonfly Petroglyph site in Silver City, New Mexico:
this kind of vandalism at archaeological sites like the Dragonfly Petroglyph is classified as a felony. If anyone has any information about these “Joe + Liz” rock carvings or the individual(s) who made them please contact New Mexico’s SiteWatch program at (505) 827-6320 or via email at nm.shpo@state.nm.us; and/or telephone the Grant County Sheriff’s Office at (575) 574-0100; and/or drop the GCAS a line at gcasnm.org@gmail.com. Let’s hold these people to account.
