Brief description of site: A boulder on plains level at the edge of the western side of Chongoni mountain. Top
bulges out on western side to provide protection for a sizeable surface, limited shade but little shelter. Not suited for habitation. Easily accessible, looking into trees.
Brief description of art: All much blackened by fire lit near base of boulder. Motifs include various spread-eagled designs, all in white, some daubed, some applied by finger. Most of those applied by finger are smaller and are arranged around the others suggesting a later date. Also white daubed snake-like meander decorated with black dots. 2 unusual motifs composed of many squashed circles attached together to form a single design, applied by finger in white (compare with Sanchira 1). A few rows of red dots, applied by finger, can be seen, partially overlain by the white designs.
