Abstract


The spring of 1995 marked (he discovery of (he Cave of the Moro with a grout of horse engravings of undoubted Upper Palaeolithic date. The numerous other finds that have been made in recent years in the zone of the Campo de Gibraltar suggest that it is an area of great importance. Both the rock art and the material culture evidence, in the open air or in rock shelters, has continually increasing potential for study. Furthermore this group of sites represents the most southern Palaeolithic rock art in Europe.
