Description

On typed listing "33.20 Paintings at Old's Farm (Mkoma), Katete; 7.7.60; Eastern; rock paintings; Batwa; Katete district; archaeology; Old's Farm; Mkoma; heritage; art; present."

Batwa rock art at Old's Farm in Katete.the patterns seem to be made with some white pigment on the rocks. Because of this the band of lighter rock above makes it hard to discern whether there are designs there. The two designs in the middle of the image which stand out are two of the same design, one after the other. They could represent some sort of horned animal, however it could be purely symbolic.
