El Sitio de Fragas do Mourão/As Portas (Carrazedo de Montenegro, Portugal) en el Contexto del Arte Esquemático del Noroeste Peninsular

A significant discovery of prehistoric rock art, belonging to the Schematic Art tradition, has been made at Fragas do Mourão/As Portas in Carrazedo de Montenegro, Portugal. This site, one of the most westerly identified in the Iberian Peninsula, features a unique combination of typical Schematic Art iconography and unusual graphic compositions, along with a notable concentration of cup-marks (cazoletas) on a large quartzite cliff. The findings expand the known distribution of this artistic tradition, which was previously thought to be limited to the northeastern region of Portugal and southeastern Galicia. The site's striking visual and sensory impact, enhanced by water presence and distinctive geomorphological features, underscores its importance in the broader context of prehistoric art in the northwest Iberian Peninsula.
