              Bags.

              Bushman beliefs suggest that bags had a special significance beyond everyday use. Their relation to trance metaphors is illustrated in San mythology, where parallels were drawn between getting into a skin bag and getting into an animal- that is, taking on its potency. Therefore, bags painted next to a dance or by themselves, are probably an indication of a trance experience.

              Elephants.

              Elephants are fairly frequently painted and engraved in certain regions.The paintings may be in red, black or white. Sometimes elephants are shown being hunted by a large party of men.
              There are also therianthropes with elephant heads and trunks: it is thus possible that they were part of a shaman’s vision. According to the! Kung elephants have remarkable potency. Some of the most interesting paintings of elephants are in the Western Cape, and they are shown surrounded by zigzags and crenellated lines.
