A pictograph is an image drawn or painted on a rock face. A petroglyph is an image carved into a rock face. The word comes from the Greek words petro-, meaning "stone" (think of Peter which means rock Matthew 16:18) and glyphein meaning "to carve", and was originally coined in French as pétroglyphe. Petroglyphs are found world-wide, and are often (but not always) associated with prehistoric peoples.
