This is so impressive...
Did you ever go "inside" that place or similar places?

Such austere, rugged beauty in the setting and the carved stone. You look up to look into the past there. Your angle conveys how imposing the place is.

The apparently embattled horsemen suggest that the sculptor's were explaining that the structure was necessitated as an escape from enemies.Mind's from another world(U.F.O. research-long ago-skytrainzastron)

Now I wish I had paid more attention in history class. I don't know anything about these rock carvings, but they're fascinating.

Awesome photo. The presence of the person adds just the right touch.
