Description: | 'Hartebeest Palette': a siltstone ceremonial palette fragment of rectangular shape, with uneven edges, one long side an original edge. Decorated face preserves a depiction of a horned quadruped in raised relief which has its head forward; eye shown in outline. Traces of a white outline around the animal (=modern application of chalk - for photography and/or display). Part of band at top right corner may be from the circular demarcation of the area for pigment to be ground.
