Description

“Those Lucky enough to encounter a Bradshaw rock painting often describe the moments powerful enough to unfold magical effects that touch and hold the observer for a lifetime”(Reto Weiler). Hauntingly beautiful, world heritage status rock art images from the Kimberley intrigues its origins and the identity of its artists. Despite decades of independent research by dedicated ‘Kimberley’ based individuals, and the recent plethora of funded research it has resisted all efforts to decipher this very early Bradshaw Period of rock art. Radiometric dating techniques have failed to produce conclusive dates of its origins or age. In the present study, superimposition of the five different evolutionary styles produces an ordinal time line that was then calibrated by absolute dates from biological markers. The research for this book revealed a Pleistocene floodplain culture that may have thrived with boabs on the shore from around 50-60 kya, while visiting the rocky plateau for religious and artistic pursuits. Cultural evolution was punctuated by the dramatic tidal recessions of the Pleistocene, and terminated by the 120 -140 metre inundation that marked the end of the Pleistocene and the creation of the present Kimberley coastline.
