      History

      Brief description of site: The site is on a large rock shelter (40m2) near the top of Sanjika Hill. Well shaded and protected would make an ideal habitation site. Looking into rocks and trees but on a rock immediately above there are fine views in all directions. Arduous access from south but fairly easy from north.
      Brief description of art: At far right hand end of shelter; surprisingly there are no pictographs on shelter wall itself it is quite rough and seems to have been avoided. Panel used is vertical smooth and well protected. Pictographs include 2 sets of parallel lines one horizontal, the other vertical, which partially overlap. 2 half circles open at top, one with 2 internal divisions, the other 4. Both are crossed by diagonal lines. At top is a circle with internal divisions radiating from the centre, the upper 3 of which 'break out' of the circle. This is one of the few instances of internal divisions crossing an external form. All applied by finger in red.
