History
Brief description of site: The site is on large leaning rock-face (20m2) providing pleasant shaded seating and limited shelter.
Brief description of art: Finger Dots. The main panel includes remnants of 6 large animal designs and two smaller animal designs. Working right to left, first animal facing right executed in fine outline and overlain by massed horizontal rows of dots and sets of parallel lines. Species uncertain, odd horizontal line protruding from nose. Next pair of animals also face right and are both similar shaped and accurately proportioned. One is filled, the other partially filled. Both have long curling horns and look like bovids, probably buffalo. Only head of fourth animal remains, it is filled and appears to be a bovid. The final pair face to the left but are otherwise similar to the first pair of bovids. Both are partially filled. The two small animals are both of indeterminate species, one is filled, the other partially filled, only the rear
section of one remains. All animals are applied by brush in red. Bovids so similar that they may be by same artist, others are significantly different. There are also some parallel lines, 2 circles, a circle with three vertical lines radiating from its base, a vertically stretched circle with internal horizontal divisions, and various dots, all applied by finger in red.
