    Something to note:
    Christian Frederik Louis Leipoldt, usually referred to as C. Louis Leipoldt, (/ˈlaɪpɒlt/ 28 December 1880 - 12 April 1947) was a South African poet, dramatist, medical doctor, reporter and food expert.
    He died in Cape Town but, because of his deep love for the Hantam- a mountainous and wild district north of Cape Town- his ashes were laid to rest in the rugged Pakhuis Pass (Storehouse Pass), near Clanwilliam.
    Faint Rock Art above the grave
    His grave is situated at the base of a cave-like opening on the mountain face. Directly above his tombstone there are faint drawings on the sandstone that were made by Bushmen many years before his death.
