One of the most impressive paintings at BHIMBETKA is a large animal painted at a great height on a massive projecting rock. The animal has the body and face of a boar but horns and tail of a bull. It is shown angrily chasing a tiny human figure in front of which is a large crab. The same scene with a slight variation and on a smaller scale is repeated in two other shelters. Here probably we have the depiction of a scene from tribal mythology. - [Previous: v1.c18.s7.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c18.s7.2) - [Next: v1.c18.s7.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c18.s7.4) - [Up: v1.c18.s7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c18.s7) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c18.s7.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.ghosh-1989.v1.c18.s7.3) · Pramāṇa
