Famous archeologists have visited us here and we are proud to have added them to our visitor's book: David Lewis Williams, Geoff Blundell, Sven Ouzman (see National Geographic magazine February 2001, for lead article) and Patricia Vinnecomb.
"For the rock was not simply a canvas but also a veil between the material and spirit worlds and paintings helped pierce that veil" - (National Geographic 2001, 122).
There are numerous examples of San paintings in the mountains of Woodcliffe and the surrounding area. A collection San artifacts is on display at the farmhouse, this collection is listed with SAHRA. Not all rock art is on Woodcliffe, prior arrangement is necessary for viewing of all paintings.
Visits to the Kwa Bhaliwe site in the Tsitsana district may be arranged with the community. A local guide will accompany you to the village and site.
