The rock art at Writing-On-Stone located in southern Alberta, Canada, is a pictorial record of Late Prehistoric and Historical Period Plains Indian culture. Analysis of these petroglyphs and pictographs provides evidence relevant to a discussion of the changes in the Plains Indian war complex and status determination system that accompanied the introduction of the horse and gun into the Northwestern Plains region of North America
