Information

This small six hectare Reserve protects rock engravings (petroglyphs) which are a valuable link to the activities of early Arrernte Aboriginal people. Here outcrops of soft sandstone beside a small claypan form natural galleries for petroglyphs featuring a great variety of symbols or motifs. Much of the meaning of the petroglyphs, according to senior Arrernte custodians, is sacred and too dangerous to reveal to people not initiated into Aboriginal law.
