Winnemucca Lake is a dry lake bed in northwest Nevada that features the oldest known petroglyphs in North America. Located astride the border between Washoe and Pershing counties, it was a shallow lake until the 1930s, but was dried when a dam and a road were built that combined to restrict and block water flow. It was formerly designated as a National Wildlife Refuge, but its status as a refuge was removed due to the lack of water.

rdfs:comment	Der Winnemucca Lake ist ein heute ausgetrockneter See im US-Bundesstaat Nevada auf der Grenze zwischen Washoe County und Pershing County. Er war ein Überrest des prähistorischen Lake Lahontan und verlor Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts durch Wasserbaumaßnahmen am Truckee River seinen Zufluss. Seit den 1930er Jahren sammelt er nur noch zeitweise nach Regenfällen Wasser. Das Seebecken ist etwa 45 km lang und an der breitesten Stelle rund 7 km breit. Auf dem Westrand des Sees verläuft die , die Fernley mit Gerlach verbindet. (de) Winnemucca Lake is a dry lake bed in northwest Nevada that features the oldest known petroglyphs in North America.

has abstract	Der Winnemucca Lake ist ein heute ausgetrockneter See im US-Bundesstaat Nevada auf der Grenze zwischen Washoe County und Pershing County. Er war ein Überrest des prähistorischen Lake Lahontan und verlor Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts durch Wasserbaumaßnahmen am Truckee River seinen Zufluss. Seit den 1930er Jahren sammelt er nur noch zeitweise nach Regenfällen Wasser. Das Seebecken ist etwa 45 km lang und an der breitesten Stelle rund 7 km breit. Auf dem Westrand des Sees verläuft die , die Fernley mit Gerlach verbindet. Der See ist benannt nach dem Paiute-Häuptling (* ca. 1820, † 1882). Am See wurden die ältesten bekannten Petroglyphen auf dem amerikanischen Kontinent gefunden. Sie werden auf ein Alter zwischen 11.300 und 10.500 cal. Before Present datiert.

It was formerly designated as a National Wildlife Refuge, but its status as a refuge was removed due to the lack of water. Winnemucca Lake is home to several petroglyphs long believed to be very old. In 2013, researchers dated the carvings to between 14,800 and 10,500 years ago. Either date would make them the oldest known petroglyphs found in North America. The carvings lie within the Pyramid Lake Indian Reservation. (en)
