Brief description of site: The site is on a boulder at the top of a small hill north of Namzeze. It leans to the south-west providing a protected area with nicely shaded seating. The site is too small to have been used as a habitation there are good views to the south and west. The site ideal as an observation point and is easily accessible.
Brief description of art: The art consists of a large filled quadruped (probably nyau-kasiyamaliro) in white. A snake-like meander. A squat biped design (thought by a local accompanying my team to resemble a nyau masked character). All carefully daubed in white. There are also a few more fainted red lines. The surface is partially washed by rain water and the other images that may have been destroyed.
