Grading
Grading by: Ngwao-Boswa Jwa Kapa Bokone (Northern Cape PHRA)
The site has cultural, social, artistic and historical significance. This site consists of a low hill with a high density of rock engravings and associated late stone age debris, concentrated within a relatively small area. More than 400 documented engravings have been identified on the site, one of which is used as the logo of the Provincial Heritage Resources Authority. The rock art is a good example of that found in the area. According to historical record the site is also associated with Kousop, the last of the San leaders of the area to organise active resistance to Trekboer encroachment.
