]]>. Rock Art in Namibia. On a rather remote farm in North Western Namibia, there is a range of ancient rock art and engraving. It is much smaller and less well marketed than the White Lady and Twyfelfontein /Bushman Paradise locations. As commented on by KaiHofmann, Drew Parsons and Hamish Fenton who have posted images of these locations, there are problems with the way their specimens have been ill-treated or damaged, and Omburo seems to have largely avoided this to date.
