Are Somaliland cave paintings in danger of being lost for good?
The Laas Geel caves and their artistic contents are located in the self-declared republic of Somaliland. The rocks display prehistoric paintings of humans and animals, mostly dogs, cows and giraffes. But Dr Jama Musse Jama, a scholar from Somaliland, has been raising the alarm over the challenges the caves are facing because of uncontrolled tourism and environmental degradation. He spoke to 大象传媒 Newsday.
