SiteComments: 

A series of dongas covering an area of approximately 200m x 350m occurs directly adjacent to the road leading to Cwaka Village. Various Middle Stone Age tools have been exposed by the dongas or have been washed down from the mountain directly above. The stone age tools include cores, blades and flakes. All the tools observed are made of indurated shale and they are heavily patinated. They are out of context and of little research value. No other cultural or faunal material has been observed on the site.
