Abstract


In these lines we present the description and interpretation of a new rock engraving found in O Monte das Ferraduras (Fentáns, Galiza). This finding, was the result of an intensive exploration in the area, the most outstanding of this panel is one possible representation of a “rossa camuna” design unknown in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula.
We think therefore, this is singular finding deserve an analisys about parallels found in Western Europe, it will help us to understand the chronological contexts of this panel.
