Environnement naturel:

The geographical area can be defined as a mountainous region in the transition between the pre-littoral hills of the “Dorsal Meridional Gallega” and the Southern Depression, a large fracture that crosses Galicia from north to south. In the immediate area of the site, the main vegetation is scrub-land and autochthonous woodland, with fields and meadows in the valleys and plantations of eucalyptus and pine further away from the villages. The place is located in the Valley of Lerez river that forms the Estuary of Pontevedra.


Eléments archéologiques du site:

The area of the Rias Baixas is characterised by the wealth and diversity of its prehistoric sites, and among these the open-air rock engravings are the most important and emblematic archaeological evidence. Most of the rock engravings in Galicia are concentrated in the middle valley of the River Lérez, in the municipalities of Campo Lameiro and Cotobade.
