THE National Heritage Department (JWN) will carry out excavations and documentation of ancient drawings found in Gua Semadong as well as fragments of human skeletons in Bukit Keteri, near Padang Besar, Perlis.

National Heritage commissioner Mohd Azmi Mohd Yusof said JWN had conducted an archaeological exploration in the area with the State Economic Planning Unit (UPEN) and Perlis Climbing Association in July last year.
