Indigenous ones have been in company of Lizards since ancient times. Their likeness has been found on petroglyphs and pottery, among other places. In Zuni Pueblo, horned lizards are highly respected and associated with the Red Ant Society. Mexican cultures also respect horned lizards attributing the words: "Don't tread on me! I am the color of the earth and I hold the world; therefore walk carefully, that you do not tread on me." Jensen Charlie, III's lizard (or perhaps a horned lizard) has incredible scale details and a decorative line of handsome turquoise inlays. About 3 3/4" long, 1 3/4" wide and 5/8" tall, carved from fish rock serpentine.
