>Wild Deer and Boar
>The scene depicts a wild deer and a boar being chased by men in garments made of leopard skin. All the figures are painted with red ocher. The boar is shown with a red body and black hooves, tail and hair. One of the men is shown touching the tongue of the deer while one another is shown trying to pull the boar’s tail.
