A petroglyph is a drawing or carving on rock, made by a member of a prehistoric people. The texture and color of these walls, with matching floor and ground cover, are authentic to the Navajo Sandstone formation of the American Southwest, home to some very spectacular petroglyph panels and rock art:

I've created two different wall panels, which look best when alternated, but don't have to be. The wall panels can be used for either interior or exterior.
I used the same texture for both the floor and the ground cover so they would blend together seamlessly, but your Sims' caves could have real floors, and plants and trees could be placed outside.
The walls are in the BUILD catalog under MASONRY, and the floor is under STONE. The ground cover is, of course, under TERRAIN.
