      History

      Brief description of site: The site is on a very large boulder at the edge of the flat top of Pamwamba. The sites ZAM-MWW115, ZAM-MWW116, ZAM-MWW117, ZAM-MWW118 and ZAM-MWW119 are all on faces of the same boulder. The boulder is extraordinary despite its size. The boulder does not sit directly on the hill, it rests about a foot above the ground supported by various small rocks. The site has good views to the north but it looks into rocks on the other sides. The site is not especially visible and relatively hard to get to. There are various places that allow shaded seating but none suited for habitation. ZAM-MWW115 has a small moderately protected face that looks into other boulders.
      Brief description of art: Two filled animal depictions. One clear in brushed purple pigment. Back half
      removed by water stain, front section has legs in running posture but no head. Second
      animal rather fat looking in naive style with squat legs, ears. Executed in orange to brown
      pigment that has not adhered well.
