The Scientific Foundation for Prehistoric Rock Art in Boulder, CO is a non-profit organization dedicated to the study and preservation of prehistoric rock art in North America. The organization was founded in 1996 by a group of archaeologists, scientists, and educators who recognized the importance of this cultural heritage and its potential to enhance our understanding of early human societies.

The foundation's research focuses on the analysis of rock art images, including their style, composition, and context. This work involves a range of scientific techniques, such as digital imaging, photography, and spectroscopy, in order to better understand the materials and techniques used by ancient artists.

The foundation also conducts fieldwork to document and preserve rock art sites, as well as to study the natural environment in which they were created. This work includes mapping and surveying rock art sites, as well as monitoring their condition and developing conservation strategies to protect them for future generations.

In addition to its research and conservation efforts, the Scientific Foundation for Prehistoric Rock Art also offers educational programs for the public, including lectures, workshops, and field trips. These programs aim to promote awareness and appreciation of North America's rich cultural heritage, as well as to inspire future generations of scientists and scholars.
