Geodetic Surveys
Accurate plumbing of theodolites and targets over station marks is requisite in making geodeticsurveys. Exact centering was always desired, however miscenterings of 0.1 to 0.2-in. and perhapsmore when high towers were involved would not be unrealistic, nor cause large errors. i.e. Amiscentering of 0.1-in. translate into a maximum error of 003 in an angle over 10 mile lines andfor a 1-in. displacement, over the same length lines the largest error would be 03. Where tripodheight stands and short towers were employed, the centering was usually done with plumb bobs. ... [Read More]

Utah History To Go - Fremont
A second trait is a unique "Fremont" moccasin style constructed from the hock of a deer or mountain sheep leg. This and other moccasin types found in Fremont sites are very different from the woven yucca sandals of the Anasazi. A third item is actually an art style represented in three dimensions by trapezoidal-shaped clay figurines with readily identified hair "bobs" and necklaces. These same trapezoidal figures are depicted in Fremont pictographs and petroglyph panels. Magic and/or religious functions have been ascribed to these painted and sculpted figures, but no one really knows their purpose or meaning. ... [Read More]
Capitol Reef - Petroglyph Pullout
Rock art Figurines resemble Fremont rock art. Pictographs (painted) and petroglyphs (carved or pecked) are depictions of people, animals and other shapes and forms left on rock surfaces. Anthropomorphic (human-like) figures usually have trapezoidal shaped bodies with arms, legs and fingers. The figures are often elaborately decorated with headdresses, ear bobs, necklaces, clothing items and facial expressions. A wide variety of zoomorphic (animal-like) figures include bighorn sheep, deer, dogs, birds, snakes and lizards. Abstract designs, geometric shapes and handprints are also common. ... [Read More]
