The rock art of Uganda has not been extensively explored and its authorship has remained uncertain due to its obscure geometric iconography and unknown date. This paper, developed out of my PhD thesis, provides an analysis of the geometric rock art of Uganda and describes its relationship with similar rock art in the east and central African region. This association provides a strong basis for a new ascription of Pygmy hunter-gatherer authorship.
