Description
English: Petroglyphs from the North wall of the Yintayin cave on Stanley Islands North Coast. Of note are the images of western style ships in the center of the image. These appear to be much earlier vessels than the Endevour sailed by James Cook in 1770. His was the first ship to return to Europe with reports of exploration of Australias north East coast. (Perhaps Portuguese ships from a hundred years earlier?)
