Excerpt from El Morro Trails: El Morro National Monument, New Mexico Here you observe a number of very faint Spanish inscriptions which have never been completely studied. Note the word ano (year) 1646. To the right is a lamp-blackened inscription reading paso por aqui Miguel Alfaro (passed by here, Miguel Alfaro). A date is not given, nor is the man yet known to us. Scholars, dating the inscriptions by letter style, say it was done about 1700. The round black discs along the bottom of the rock are section markers. Each one is lettered and they divide the face of the cliff into sec tions so the inscriptions can be easily located and recorded.
