Rock art is visual imagery painted onto, engraved into or sculpted out of a rock surface.
Rock art is an archaeological artefact that tells us about its makers who they were, when they lived and, most importantly, what they thought. Southern Africa has many different rock art traditions made by hunter-gatherers, herders, farmers and colonists. It is important to study and manage all of these rock arts in order to better understand and respect each other and the land we live in.
