More model informationThis rock art shelter is located in South Africa’s Maloti Drakensberg Park World Heritage site. The extensively painted cave is one of the best painted sites in the country, and a beautiful group of Eland can be seen in this image. The San not only relied on the Eland for meat and nourishment, but believed that the Eland had a mystical potency which resided in the blood and fat of the animal.
