Information

The site was discovered in 1991 by Ximo Andrés, who attributed it to the end of the Palaeolithic period based on the materials recovered, and discovered the existence of the remains of greatly deteriorated rock art. In 2019 we carried out archaeological surveys to determine the preserved sequence and try to establish its link with the painted motifs, including the remains of a goat. These excavations have shown a complex sequence, with several Neolithic levels and older occupation in the transition between the Magdalenian and the Epimagdalenian periods.
