Rock Art of Timna Valley - StoneWatch

71
Here, more animals can be seen than in the rest of the panel: capricorns, ostriches, dogs and
some of the very rare Oryx antelopes (Oryx leucoryx) with their typical straight horns. This
kind of antelope is not to be found in any other rock writing in the Near East although it
occurs still in South Arabia. A warrior in the middle keeping watch, as it seems, over a herd
of cattle, and a war chariot span on the right.
