Biografie
Brief description of site: A very large (80m2) and prominent rock shelter set into the side ofNarnzeze hill, can be seen from valley below. Ideal habitation site or observation point. Access is remarkably arduous from all directions up a near vertical hillslope, making the site well secluded. Very good views to north.
Brief description of art: Very extensive painted surfaces, all well protected and well preserved. Too numerous to describe, see sketch. Left end has massed red designs many of which overlay one another. Some have delicate white dot decoration, a few have white fill. Central section
and right end also has a few red designs. These are the areas with smooth flat surfaces and this would seem to explain the positioning. On many other rougher sections and over the red designs are numerous schematised zoomorphs, anthropomorphs and a car (mostly nyau characters including - kasiyamaliro, ng'ombe, galimoto, kapoli and other bird and facemask characters). All applied in white, some daubed, some finger applied. Also 3 unique, finely applied, complex geometric designs in red and white. Applied by brush, I suspect, by one artist.
