| "Seal", a petroglyph in Fulford Harbour. |
petroglyphs. Petroglyphs are images pecked out of rock. We have a lovely huge petroglyph in Drummond Park on Fulford Harbour which has been entitled "Seal". Also in the area is a bowl that is pecked into the rock which some say is shamanic. It was made famous by Phyllis Webb, a Canadian poet, who lived in Fulford at the time. She called it "Wilson's Bowl" and published a poem about it. "Wilson" was Wilson Duff, a well known anthropologist who did a lot of wonderful work and helped establish the Archaeological Heritage Board. One of my favourite jobs was recording the petroglyphs on the banks of the Fraser River for PhD candidate Doris Lundy of Simon Fraser University at the time. Two of us recorded over one hundred boulders covered in images. It was needed as spring floods moved the boulders around and often covered them in water. It was an exciting time. The man I worked with I eventually married but that is another story.
