Una nueva galería decorada en la cueva de Alkerdi 2 (Urdazubi/Urdax) [A new decorated gallery at the Alkerdi 2 cave (Urdazubi/Urdax)]
Abstract
Within the framework of the characterization project of the karstic massif of Alkerdi and its system, the cave of Alkerdi and its protected environment, we have continued with the scientific study of the cave of Alkerdi 2. The speleological prospecting work of the karstic development of the cave has allowed locating an unknown decorated gallery in 2020. In a first study, a set of paintings and engravings has been detected inside, composed mainly of animal representations of bison, horses and aurochs, to which a panel decorated with vulvas and two sets of paired red traits are added.
