Twyfelfontein (Damaraland), Namibia

A UNESCO World Heritage cultural site, Twyfelfontein boasts one of Africa’s richest concentrations of rock engravings—some over 6,000 years old—created by San hunter‑gatherers and Khoikhoi herders. The symbolic and spiritual imagery includes rare depictions of penguins or sea lions, hinting at coastal travel over 60 km away. The art reflects shamanistic rituals and a profound connection to the land.
