Aiken's Wash

Aiken's Wash is an archaeologically and geologically significant wash located in the Mojave National Preserve in San Bernardino County, California.

The area was added to the National Register of Historic Places as the Aiken's Wash National Register District. The district comprises , including all major archaeological sites in the wash.〔
==Description==
The two largest rock art groupings are at Aiken's Arch (located at ) and Milky Way Caves; other prominent groupings are at Aiken's Cove, Aiken's Tank, Metate Cliff, Shadow Cave, and The Dikes. Patterns depicted in the petroglyphs include anthropomorphs, circles and curves, grids and lattices, and occasional zoomorphs or phytomorphs; the pictographs, which mainly use red dye, show similar patterns.〔Musser, Ruth A.
