Near Cape Cleveland there are some aboriginal paintings on a several large boulders. These boulders are on the side of the main road from Townsville to Brisbane - the A1

What do you make of these two ‘paintings’ on one of the rocks? 

They are very far up the rock too. They would have to have had something to stand on to create these images.








Do you think that an Englishman drew these two images?

If so, why?
