Scope

Outcropping bedrock on edge of slope immediately adjacent to LGR107A. Carvings on upper surface. Panel has fragmented since carvings were made.

Arrangement

Wildebeest, gazelle, indeterminate, two nasses, cupmarks, grooves, incisions, polishing, pecking: Extensively worked surface with several superimpositions. On inner edge of panel is incised outline of large quadruped facing left with outward then upward curving horns, cervico-thoracic hump, possibly a wildebeest. Elongated tapered legs, incised lines on head, fringed tail. Animal is superimposed over incised nasse, with second nasse shape below belly, formed between belly line and legs. Both nasses have two gouged cupmarks at bulbous end, incised lines across thin end, and incised antennae. To the right is incised outline of a gazelle facing right. Outline and upward then forward curving horns have been pecked at later date. Gazelle is partly superimposed over pecked and incised lines forming indeterminate shape, possibly an animal. Numerous incisions and grooves, some forming indeterminate shapes. Deep notch on edge of panel combined with two long grooves creates partial anthropomorph. Polished areas and surface pecking.
