Biografie
Brief description of site: The site is on a very large and impressive rock shelter (90m2) half way up western side of Mtusi hill. Would have made an ideal habitation site. Partially excavated by Mgomezulu in 1976. He found extensive evidence of usage including 4 short statured skeletons. The site is said to be still used for female initiation. Arduous but simple access with fine views to west.
Brief description of art: The art consists of many varied spread-eagled designs all daubed in white, the one on the ceiling is remarkable in size and has been repainted at least twice. Some of the images are heavily blackened by soot. At the left end of the shelter and there are a few red designs applied by finger including dots, short vertical lines, a concentric circle and a half circle open at top with single internal vertical division.
