Biographical history
Brief description of site: A boulder at the base of Mwana Wa Chencherere with a recess in its southern side. Recess deep enough to provide shade and protection but, with the two larger recessed shelters nearby, this seems unlikely to have been used for habitation. Looking into trees.
Brief description of art: Pictographs on back ledge of recess. Rock surface has been extensively graffitied during recent times with names and scribblings in charcoal. There are also a few outline zoomorphic designs in similar charcoal (nyau - kasiyamaliro). Now very faint having been damaged by extensive graffiti and fire, there are traces of a set of concentric circles and parallel lines, applied by finger in red.
