Ancient art that rocks

Ancient art that rocks

In Uganda, rock art particularly boasts of a powerful monument of priceless antiquities that afford us a window into the cultures of our distant past. In spite of the sun, wind and rain, many of these works have lasted for thousands of years on the exposed rocks.

Unfortunately for us, and in contrast with the discoveries of the Westerns and Eastern world, few people recognize this invaluable treasure that we have. Conversely, every discovery of ancient relics in the developed world has often warranted immense media publicity and publication of volumes by different profilers. This exposure has often consequently led to multitudes from across the world visiting these world heritage sites, prominent of which are cave paintings.
