        History

        Brief description of art: Site is in a Krans close to the farm school and labourer's quarters behind a dam. The clearest paintings occur in a scene, which is painted in a hollow of the rock. The scene consists of humans and a lion. Two 'double up' figures in black are running towards the lion, which is to the right. The lion is white with a black spine. Its mane it is also black with white dots painted on it. Below the lion's right foot is another human figure that might be sitting with arms stretched forward. Above the lion are two figures in white who face the running figures.

        Another panel, close by, has only faded paintings, but contains a number of finger dots on the extreme left. On the extreme right of this panel there is an unusual painting, in yellow, of a lion in three quarters profile leaping down the rock.

        Although the field notes are not clear, it appears that this panel also contains an eland suckling its calf. The eland and its calf may be connected to a running figure, with its hands up, by a black line. The running figure faces two felines in white.
