This cave is located in the heart of the Río Pinturas canyon. In this Argentinian Lascaux there are several styles of paintings from different eras; the oldest are said to date back more than 13,000 years. These testimonies represent hunters and guanacos, but above all a great quantity of hands painted in different colors, most of them with the stencil technique. This site remains well preserved and has an environmental formation unique in the entire province of Santa Cruz. These are without a doubt the most famous cave paintings in the country and elsewhere, they were crowned in 1999 by the UNESCO World Heritage.
