Upper Paleolithic (40,000–13,000 years ago)


The Santían Cave in Cantabria preserves one of the most enigmatic sets of cave paintings in the north of the Iberian Peninsula. Neither its interpretation nor its chronology has been definitively established, which in no way diminishes the expressive power of this series of fifteen vertical lines with diverging upper ends, painted in a deep red, spaced at regular intervals, and arranged in two overlapping rows at the top of a deep, wide space within the cave, where a large group of people can gaze in awe at this mysterious composition as they look upward.
