9000 years old rock art discovered in Australia

INDIGENOUS rangers from the remote community of Kalumburu have discovered what are thought to be four significant ancient rock art sites.
"With well over 100,000 known sites and exciting new discoveries each year, Australia has more rock art than any other country in the world," said anthropologist and rock art expert Paul Tacon, of Queensland's Griffith University.
"It ranges in age from tens of thousands of years to images made in the late 1900s."
THE wealth of indigenous rock art across northern Australia, which experts believe will take several generations to record, has prompted the creation of a new research chair for Kimberley rock art at the University of Western Australia.
