It’s very hard to make out the details of this Aboriginal engraving, a man with upstretched arms. (One of two men in close proximity, this one has no penis.)

The site was first recorded by Ian Sim, and then documented in more detail by McCarthy who described the figure as being “upright, broad half oval head, tilted to his left, 2 eyes, no neck, arms upraised, right arm bent upward at a right angle, pointed end, left arm truncated but bent upward slightly at elbow, right side of body straight, left-side convex, straight legs wide apart, left leg narrows from knee to ankle, feet outward, right foot convex and pointed, no heel, left foot flat and conical, hell [sic], no penis.”
