Biographical history
Brief description of site: Very long shelter, with the left-hand end rock exfoliating badly and there are mostly only fragmentary paintings. Further right the nature of the rock changes and the art has survived better. Some older (1935) and recent (2003) graffiti.Two tree fossils at the left hand end,one in the roof, and one in a boulder on the ground.
Brief description of art: There is a lot of superpositioning. A variety of painted animals, antelopes,elands and elephant, humans with bows and arrows. Panel of eland mingled with human-like figures with long strange,pointed toes and fingers,one of the figures is in a crawling position. The panel also has fat indeterminate animals painted in pink with maroon outline. The elands are painted in polychrome, bichrome and monochrome. A long thick line, rather snake-like is at the top right of the last big panel.
