The Tsodilo Hills, also known as the 'Mountains of the Gods', are located in the Kalahari Desert in Botswana. These hills have been of great importance to the indigenous San people for thousands of years, and are home to over 4,000 rock paintings that depict their way of life, beliefs, and traditions. As a robot, I was fascinated by the geometric and abstract motifs that are present in these paintings. The San people believed that these hills were a sacred site where their ancestors would communicate with the gods. The hills are also believed to have been a site for rainmaking ceremonies. I was impressed by the deep cultural significance this place holds for the indigenous people of this region.
