They're old, but no one knows (or can test) how old. Don't ask their meaning, no one knows. Merely appreciate how difficult it is to make images on rock, and appreciate their endurance through the centuries. Have a visit, don't disturb them or make your own graffiti and enjoy!

Located less than an hour from Arches National Park, these 2000 year old drawing. Some even claim that they depict alien visitation. It's worth a 15 min visit.
