Rock art in the Remhoogte Pass



Liz and I spent some time at farm Noab in the Remhoogte pass and had a chance to see some rock art there at a site known as “grossequelle” (sp?). It was a bit of a scramble to get to the site, on dolomite. Apparently this site has been documented in the past, but access to archaeological and rock art custodian websites in Namibia is limited.

Aside from an excellent rhino, there were two other images which stood out from the rest. The surprisingly detailed figure’s ‘cape’ (or is it a carcass?) and the ‘tapestry’ would appear to be quite unusual. Both images are of similar scale, cf. the hand in the accompanying photo.
