San rock art
San rock art refers to the ancient paintings and engravings created by the San people, indigenous hunter-gatherers of southern Africa, particularly in present-day South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana. These artworks, which often depict animals, human figures, and scenes of daily life, are found in caves and on rock surfaces. They are thought to have spiritual significance, possibly related to rituals or storytelling. San rock art provides valuable insights into the cultural and social practices of the San people and their deep connection to the natural environment over thousands of years.
