We visited the Tsodilo Hills to take in the ancient rock art. Following the "rhino trail", we visited some 12 painting sites.

A 5000 year old depiction of a man milking a cow. We never received a good explanation of what the colours and patterns at the neck represent, but we gather they may have wrapped some sort of cloth on their cows, or at least their important ones.

A magnificent prehistoric rock canvas covered in ancient paintings. Created by pastoralists some 5000 years ago, they mainly show cows, men, and dogs. There are some other themes in the eight or so caves, including some wild animals and a couple of hunting scenes, but bovines well and truly dominate.
