Carnarvon Gorge rock art - Women's Business
Women of the local tribes carved an image of a vulva every time a child was born here. The cave wall was overwhelmed with these carvings.
Hmmmm.. it was covered in them..... there were lots... I've never encountered so many in such a confined space...so you're probably correct.. overwhelmed and over florid at times.
