Palaeolithic rock art in salamanca. New findings in el Paraje de La Salud site

Abstract

This paper presents a study of the newly discovered panel with Palaeolithic engravings at El Paraje de La Salud (Salamanca). We use three-dimensional restitution techniques in order to document both the support and the recorded motifs. It is one more example of open-air Premagdalenian art. Their technical and formal characteristics are similar to those of representations at the Portuguese sites of Fariseu and Penascosa in the Côa, as well as those at the recently discovered Foz do Río Tua.
