              A243 (A). Bees, human figures, and karosses.

              In rock art, one sees depictions of nested U-shapes with bees. Bushman shamans interpreted this particular shape as a honeycomb because bees are a Bushman symbol of potency. In the Kalahari, Bushmen dance when bees are swarming because they believe that they can harness their potency for a particularly effective dance.               Poacher’s Shelter I

              Two antelope men with their hooves neatly indicated, walk along a line or path. A few flakes are all that remains of a thick antelope man in front of the other two. Sets of short strokes are painted above their heads and some bees near their feet.

              This shows the rock faces on both sides of a sharp corner. There are a few bees and the remains of three bucks and an eland on the right and a human figure on the left.
