Cueva de Ambrosio

Cueva de Ambrosio

This site is considered one of the most important for the study of the Upper Paleolithic era of the Iberian Peninsula. It is a large rocky shelter on a vertical wall more than 100m high. It was excavated for the first time in 1911 and features a Paleolithic, Epipaleolithic and Neolithic cultural sequence. On this site, during the 1992 and 1994 campaigns, a set of painted and engraved artistic parietal representations of the Upper Paleolithic era were discovered.
