the floor, as well as almost everywhere else around, were the 

 recent remains of dead rabbits. 



I have been able to gather no information as to the age of 

 these drawings, or as to the tribe by whom they were executed. 

 The unobliterated figures are, however, still quite distinct. 

 In general style and characters and the colors used the zoo- 

 morphic designs are quite similar to those that have been 

 recorded from other parts, the bird tracks being especially of 

 frequent occurrence, but there were no indications here of the 

 stencilled figures of hands that have been so often noticed 

 in many such shelters throughout the country. 



In conclusion, I have to thank Mr. John Hogarth for the 

 photograph from which Plate iii. is reproduced; Mr. Tucker 

 for other photographs, which it has not been possible to utilise ; 

 and Miss Harwood for reproducing, from my own crude 

 sketches, some of the drawins^s of Plate iv.
