History
Brief description of site: A tall isolated boulder standing in fields on flat land a few hundred metres northeast of Banda hill. Variously known as Malunza and Chinkanda. The boulder lists to the northeast providing slight protection to the north and east rock-faces from direct rainfall. All areas of protected surface hold traces of red pigment.
Brief description of art: The general degree of protection from sun and washing is poor. Motifs only survive in the best-protected areas; originally the area painted must have been much larger. Motifs include: 2 circles with externally radiating lines, a circle, a stretched circle with multiple vertical divisions, 3 sets of parallel vertical lines one joined by horizontal bars, a vertical row of upwardly pointing V shapes with line up centre, various vertical lines. All motifs in similar shade of red pigment and in finger width lines, no overlays or suggestions of sequence.
