Sorry jeremyhu, not there

Sorry again jeremyhu, not there

Sorry Gbc, not Henbury in th NT, but a lot further south in South Australia

Correct State Barry, but a long way north of Chambers Gorge

Stephen, Do you mean a long way South of Chambers Gorge?

Oops, that was a boo boo Phil, yes a very long way south, sorry

Sorry Garry, a long way east south east of Wertaloona

Here is a further hint.......in the early to mid 1950’s, the museum of South Australia remove a large rock right in this area, and shipped it to Adelaide on the nearby train.

The reason for its removal was it was a petroglyph of a crocodile head, showing perfect detail and showed that in previous thousands of years, the area here had large bodies of water and crocodiles inhabited this area.

Panaramitee, near Yunta.

Sorry, I did research with the hint.

Well done Rowdy, spot on

If those large biting lizards were there thousand of years ago and water for them to live in, it seems the recent Global warming claims is a load of crap. They wouldn't/couldn't live in sub zero temps as experienced in outback now. Must have got cooler and now they are up north.

In that same time RMD, the experts say Lake Mungo, north of Mildura was a tropical area, with the Lake full of water and tropical vegetation, so that would fit in with the same time frame as Panaramitee

Lol, is that your learned scientific opinion RMD? Even if the carving was a croc head - and that's very unlikely according to some expert analysis - then there could be a very simple explanation you've overlooked. Likewise, the evidence for anthropogenic global warming is out there if you're really interested, although you'll have to get past your inherent scorn for people with university educations and decades of experience and research.

Here's one expert's opinion on the "croc head", although as we know anyone with a degree is a numpty so it should be taken with a grain of salt - or not:
"Ronald Berndt (1987) secured a very detailed indigenous interpretation of the complex petroglyph from Barney Waria in 1942, according to which the image depicts a yarida magic object (Fig. 2).
This is a complex artefact made from wood and string, representing the spirit body of a human being as well as many other things. " (second page of the linked PDF)

Here's some very basic background on croc distribution: https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-05-03/curious-north-coast-crocodiles/9714148

PS - you're a very lucky man to have seen those petroglyphs Stephen . To think I was a stones throw (or three) away on a hot rocks survey about a decade ago and didn't know.
