Biographical history
Brief description of site: The site comprises a single dolerite boulder that marks the southern side of the entrance to the Numas Ravine. This entrance has dolerite and granite interspersed. Located slightly elevated from the riverbed on the 560 m contour at the beginning of the steep hill slope. Two rock promontories are close by. Good and expectant view up the ravine as well as across the entrance.
Brief description of art: On the near-vertical face of a medium-sized to small dolerite boulder. There are three rough outline pecked circles joined in a vertical line by means of two short pecked lines. Central circle has a cross-like internal division that gives the circle a 'pill'-like look. The uppermost and bottom-most circles have internal divisions also, but these are less clearly defined. To the right on a 45° face is a roughly pecked grid-like design placed within a circle/square image. There is also a handspan's worth of rough culturally-manufactured peck marks on the rock. These engraved peck marks may have been made by a metal instrument.
