        History

        Brief description of site: This is an impressive shelter with a good commanding view of L. Bisinia, surrounding village and plains. This is part of a large boulder that rests on several small boulders, forming an enclosure. The floor of the shelter is covered with grass, with a large portion slightly raised. The shelter measures approximately 9m long, 7.20m wide.
        Brief description of art: The motifs are in red monochrome as well as white monochrome. All the paintings are in the wash area. There are six red concentric circles and two rayed circles similar to the motifs at UGA-NYE2. The motifs in red and white in between are at the far right end of the shelter panel, and lower edges of the panel surface. The circular images have red lines through them, or through them. The figures appear to have been finger painted.
