There is archaeological evidence that this shelter has been used by Aboriginies for the past 20,000 years. The art gallery shows evidence of repainting - touching up the artwork - over a long period of time, indicating a traditional practice. Most of the designs are of mythological paintings. some of the popular ones are Namondjok, a dangerous spirit; Namarrogon, the lightening man; Barrkinj, the wife of Namarrkon.
