PETROGLIPHES

Both historic works of art and witnesses to Colombia's cultural richness, petroglyphs are precious relics of the region's pre-Columbian past. Engraved by ethnic groups such as the Guahibo or Nukak who once inhabited the territory, they often represent a variety of abstract symbols, human figures, animals... As a means of artistic expression, they continue to be considered sacred sites, and often have spiritual significance for indigenous communities.
