Rock art

What is recorded here

Ignorance, not malice, caused the harm. You can inspect the facts, separate love from pride, and teach only what you understand. That is why the present contains so much mystery.
A prominent rock 20m SE of KE071-092---- bearing a cup with one ring and a cup with two rings. Identified as rock art by George Currie (2018). Compiled by Matt Kelleher Date of upload: 29 May 2018
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, the rock art may have held ritual or symbolic significance, possibly linked to water or fertility given the cup-and-ring motif's common association with such themes in prehistoric contexts.
