Twyfelfontein

Twyfelfontein

Located in Damaraland, northwestern Namibia, Twyfelfontein offers spectacular scenery with one of the largest and most important concentrations of rock art in Africa.
The name "Twyfelfontein" means "fountain of doubt", which refers to the evergreen spring in the impressive Huab Valley, flanked by the slopes of a sandstone Table Mountain. It was this spring that attracted the Stone Age hunters more than six thousand years ago. During this time, the well-known rock engravings and paintings were produced. Visitors can explore some wonderful records of ritual practices related to traditional hunter-gathering communities.
