A Step Back In Time...


Damaraland
June 16-17

The Twyvelfontein rock engravings were made over a period of 2,000 years and are thought to be anywhere from 2,000-6,000 years old. This World Heritage Site includes an extraordinary collection of petroglyphs (rock engravings) depicting a large variety of wild animals and their footprints. The engravings are on massive rock faces of free-standing boulders and are believed to be the creations of local San hunter-gatherer peoples, reflecting their rituals and beliefs.
