December 12, 2010 Bhimbetka,Bhopal,Madhya Pradesh,India- The nominated Bhimbetka rock shelters site lies within the Vindhyan Hills, an area of massively sculpted sandstone rock formations clustered around Bhimbetka Hill. The area has abundant natural resources - perennial water supplies, natural shelter, rich forest flora and fauna, and these conditions of plenty seem to have been conducive to the development of sustainable and persistent societies and the creation of notable rock art. These shelters are decorated with picture writings, depicting the life and times of pre-historic cave dwellers.
