Imagery and design
The cover artwork is the skeleton of the "oldest known"
dingo . Under the skeleton is the description:"OLDEST KNOWN DINGO, the Australian dog, was unearthed at the depth of six feet at Fromm's Landing rock-shelter no. 6. Dating from 1000 B.C., the animal shows no morphological differences from the dingos of today. Man and the dingo were virtually the only predators in prehistoric Australia; they apparently killed off some species of marsupials."
