Indian God Rock is a large boulder in the northwestern part of the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. Located near the unincorporated community of Brandon, it lies along the Allegheny River in Venango County's Rockland Township. It is significant for the large petroglyph on one of its sides. Because of the petroglyph, the rock has been an explorers' landmark, a tourist attraction, and an object of scholarly investigation. ==Geology== One of many large boulders lining the banks of the Allegheny River in Venango County, Indian God Rock is composed of sandstone and measures approximately 22×14×10 feet,〔Hopey, Don. "Heavy History". ''Pittsburgh Post-Gazette'', 15 April 1993. C1, C2.〕 or 7×4×4 meters by another measurement.〔 As sandstone is an easy material to carve,〔(Archaeology Education Program ). 22:1 (Winter 2004). Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse. Accessed 2009-12-08.〕 the rock was an ideal surface for the creation of rock art.〔
