Rock Art

600 years old. Etched into stone with natural dye by the San. The bushman. We are in South Africa. Hiking in a nature preserve, through the bush. Seeing this magnificent landscape by foot is awesome. We come across a small cave, with art, ancient art. The picture shows people, looking at an eland. An eland, the largest antelope, is a mammal well respected. In fact, god like. The San worship many gods. In the image carved into this sacred cave, the god rises above the eland. It is said that when the bushman hunted the eland, they thanked the eland in prayer before taking his life. An amazing glimpse of time passed.
