Petroglyphics

At the time of visiting Laura cave paintings archaeologists were collecting information about the petroglyphics found on rocks under the belly of Goorialla. The petroglyphics that were being studied are carved symbols that were used as handwriting by the many tribes of the West Yalanji region. These symbols are used extensively in my art work.
