First documented by W.D. Campbell in 1899, this unusual engraving was described as a “Cicada 5′ long, with a round head, no eyes, arc across back of head, oval body with pointed end, 2 short truncated forelegs at right angles to body, 2 narrow oval wings, rounded ends, attached to outline of body. It is 20 times larger than natural size.”
McCarthy later documented a kangaroo and part of a kangaroo near this unusal Aboriginal engraving.
