History
Brief description of site: This site is located on the western side of a small poort or pass on a 1 300 m contour. The site consists of a large 2.4 m high pile of rough dolerite rock covering approximately 25 m2. For years the engravings were covered over by bushes.
There are a few lithics (stone tools) located on the surface of the site. These stone tools are mostly made from lydianite of 'hornfels' - also known as indurated shale. Among the stone tools are flakes - which were general purpose tools used to cut, scrape and so forth. There is no bone preserved and no ostrich eggshell was observed.
Brief description of art: There is a 700 mm x 600 mm lightly pecked outline engraving of an antelope. The antelope is somewhat amorphous but may represent a hartbeest or blesbok. The peck marks are not deep and they are still relatively unweathered - suggesting an age of between 150 - 500 years.
