SET IN STONE By Chris Morton

Just a stone’s throw away from Hearson Cove sits some of the most amazing rock art in the world. Looking like an ancient giant has tipped out bucket loads of rocks, the boulder-strewn area is alive with stories.

W

e met up with Rangers from the Murujuga National Park, who, after calling out to their ancestors to let them know that we were there, took us for a tour of this amazing place. Now, I have never been to the Louvre in France, however I think this place has got it beat. The pindan red rocks make for a canvas capable of withstanding almost everything mother nature can throw at it. Rock inscriptions more than 10,000 years old adorn the landscape, each telling a story.
