Scope

Boulder at base of debitage in small stream gully close to base of escarpment. Carvings on sloping surface.

Arrangement

Bovid, two ostriches, pecking: On corner of panel is pecked and smoothed outline of head and shoulder of a bovid facing right with pronounced cervico-thoracic hump, ear, and un-naturally long upward and forward curving horn, possibly a cow. The shoulder of the bovid runs off the boulder edge, as if the animal is emerging from this corner. The image is ambiguous, however, and could also be interpreted as an ostrich. Pecking on head and around image. To the right are pecked outlines of two ostriches facing left with long, bent necks and long legs, partly exfoliated.
