Details of Rock Art
The only rock paintings found during the survey were situated in this shelter. The paintings are painted in red with fine detailed lines and consisted of a small group of some 11 human figures (others faded beyond recognition) walking in a straight line. Three are wearing long karosses, carrying long sticks and arrows. Some 10 m further along the cliff face is a delicate painting of a group of three small antelope (grysbuck?). One animal is lying, looking back towards the other two standing buck. This is a rare image not found often.
