Aboriginal Rock Engravings
A matter of urgency is the WA Government sanctioned sacrifice of Australian Aboriginal rock engravings on the Burrup Peninsula for the petrochemical industry
I am therefore including a self portrait from the Burrup in 1987 and 4 images I have not previously shown, it seemed wrong
The last is the "Gregory Stone", presumably following the Gregory Expedition of eighteensomething The depiction is very literal and describes a horse & rider and boot-deformed feet. Australian Aboriginal feet are broad, earth grasping feet - There is a 5x4" image of this rock, but as it could possibly betray the location, I am not showing it
