A little off the wall for us arrowhead collectors, but something you might run into. Jack has both petroglyphs and pictographs on his Big Bend property, but we have such things in the Northeast as well.
Here's a couple of good articles on the presence of Native American rock art in Pennslylvania. Some, including some archaeologists, are quick to dismiss folks who lack a certificate or degree. But to a large degree Rock Art studies are still a dicipline in its' descriptive phase. There are plenty of studies comparing design motifs, and design element distribution, and theories as to meaning, but it remains a fertile area for amateurs to make significant contributions. Guys like Paul Nevin, co-author of these 2 articles. I imagine his 25 years experience is worth a certificate or two
I imagine Mr. Nevin would be a good guy to touch base with where rock art studies in Pa. are concerned.
