This rock shelter is located alongside the Drysdale River, in a low
escarpment (Fig. 4). The shelter is 8 m long and 2.5 m high. This shelter
has mostly IIA depictions, with the presence of other rock art motifs,
which are difficult to place in a style schema, due to their poor preservation. The art at DRY017 is found on two panels: Panel 1, an inner
vertical panel; and Panel 2, located on the main ceiling overhang.

hood mould
