Chimanimani Mountains & Outward Bound Melsetter
1988-01

Bushman paintings found in a small cave behind the Outward Bound centre. The picture is likely a depiction of the people themselves.  The prominent genitalia is said to ensure no confusion between male and female figures ! The man on the left is obviously holding a spear in his left hand.  Difficult to tell what is in the right hand - perhaps fish on smaller spear sticks.  Whatever the case these are very fascinating and a reminder that people have enjoyed this beautiful part of the world for thousands of years.
