Ana Kai Tangata paintings

The Ana Kai Tangata cave is of note because in the back left wall cave paintings depicting birds, mainly manutaras, can be seen. The paintings were drawn using natural earth pigments and animal fat, but the high humidity of the cave has harmed them almost to the point of erasing them.
