History
Brief description of site: The site is a large recessed shelter with only a small opening and is very well protected and ideal for habitation. It is high on the eastern side of Diwa Hill and access is arduous. The shelter is only visible from nearby with a spectacular panorama view over the edge of the escarpment down to the lake
Brief description of art: The art consists of some images at the entrance and some inside the shelter. We were able to see the entrance images even from the base of the hill. Those images at the entrance include 3 vertical meanders, and various curving and joined lines. Inside there are sets of concentric circles decorating natural circular rock recesses in side walls and some sets of kinked parallel lines on a portion of the ceiling. All the images were applied by finger in red.
