The oldest depiction of a human face anywhere in the world is HERE.
The LATEST dated specimens here are hundreds of years older than the Pyramids.
This is Gondwanalands history, encapsulated.🧵

Shell middens. Seed grinding stones. Stone implements. Carvings of tribal ceremonies, rain dances, food preparation, teaching children.
Murujuga is not just rock glyphs - it's a library, a historical resource, an ancient but contemporary education facility for the Ngarluma and Yindjibarndi.

Murujuga is undoubtedly the most irreplaceable snapshot of the history of humans in the southern hemisphere.
Demand YOUR government protects it forever- for YOUR grandchildren.

UNESCO has voted to include the Murujuga Cultural Landscape, home to the world's greatest collection of ancient rock art, on the World Heritage List. The bid for the listing was driven by the Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation and supported by the Australian and Western Australian governments.
