Notes

Page 2 of 'Copies of Rock-paintings, Area I.' This list collates localities (grouped by district, in Area 1) with forms, colours, visual material, and attribution for Joyce and Mollie van der Riet's 'More rock paintings in South Africa: from the coastal belt between Albany and Piquetberg' (1940). The initials in the last column attribute various numbered plates to 'M.B.' (Marjorie Bright), 'S.F.' (Sheila Fort), 'C.H.' (a 'Miss [C] Hurdus' [sic] ?), and Joyce and Mollie van der Riet (J or M[.v.d.R], respectively) (Weintroub, 2015: 136). Jill Weintroub (2015: 128) notes that most of the 'in the open' short-exposure photographs taken by the Van der Riet sisters during fieldwork in Area 1 were failures. The lists reflect this shortfall. Chapters 5, pp. 103-122, and 6, pp. 123-142, of Jill Weintroub's 'Dorothea Bleek: A Life of Scholarship. A biography by Jill Weintroub' (2015) explain this material.
