- Within the African nation of Uganda there is rock art that "sits within a broad geometric rock art belt straddling East and Central Africa." More specifically, "In Uganda, rock art is mostly concentrated in eastern part of the country, especially in the districts ofKumi, Pallisa and Kaberamaido." The rock art has a few aspects that make it unique. Most of it is geometric art with circular, rectangular, sausage, dot and lines making up the basic shapes. These shapes occur repeatedly throughout the country. Some shapes do occur more frequently than others. Catherine Namono notes that "concentric circles are the most commonly painted shapes in the rock art of Uganda." There are also concentric circles with rays coming out of them, possibly representing the sun. Red was the most common color along with white, or both creating a bi-chrome pigment. (en)
- L’art rupestre en Ouganda s'inscrit dans une ceinture d'art rupestre géométrique couvrant une grande partie de l'Afrique orientale et centrale. Les sites ougandais sont concentrés à l'est du pays, dans les districts de Kumi, Pallisa et Kaberamaido. Les représentations sont principalement basées sur des formes géométriques: cercles, rectangles, courbes, points et lignes, les cercles concentriques constituant la figure la plus fréquente. Le rouge et le blanc, parfois mélangés, sont les couleurs les plus communes. (fr)
