Arte parietal paleolítico de la cueva de Alkerdi 2 (Urdazubi/Urdax, Navarra) [Palaeolithic rock art in Alkerdi 2 cave (Urdazubi/Urdax, Navarra)]
Abstract
Within the framework of the characterization project of the massif and karst system of Alkerdi, the Alkerdi cave and its protective environment, the Alkerdi 2 cavity was explored. The coordinated work has made it possible to identify a set of parietal art associated with archaeological evidence on the surface. The style of the engraved animal points towards a Gravettian attribution for human presence. Radiocarbon dating of one of the parietal motifs and a charcoal from the archaeological context corroborate this idea. This is the second cavity decorated during the Paleolithic in Navarre and the oldest artistic remain in the Autonomous Community.
