Tsodilo Hills is a rare and unique place with an atmosphere of intrigue and mystery. Located in Botswana the word Tsodilo is derived from the Hambukushu word 'sorile' which means sheer. It is believed to be the site of first Creation by the Bushmen who painted more than 4500 rock paintings against the magnificent stone faces of the hills, making it one of the most historically significant art sites in the world. The San did most of the paintings, although there are a few by Bantu-speakers whose style differs to that of the San. The exact age of the paintings are not known although some are thought to be more than 20 000 years old.
