The geography of the place gave origin to caves where there are 84 sites with testimnies of primitive art dating from 12.600 years ago that belonged to the Casapedrense culture. This unpublished drawings show hands, human figures, felines and abstract figures in hunting scenes of red, yellow, black and white colors. |
The deposit is inside Estancia La María, where you can see the characteristic farming activities of the area, and even stay overnight, since there is a camping site and lodging.
