Pla de Petracos

The Petracos Site has an Information Centre in Castell de Castells, administered by the Town Council and the Alicante County Council through MARQ (Museo Arqueológico de Alicante). The set includes a total of 8 shelters in the area known as Pla de Petracos. Most of the representations belong to the aforementioned Macroschematic style, first identified in this location. Among the different compositions we can find human figures and geometric motifs (large-scale meandering and serpentine shapes). Petracos is believed to be a sanctuary of the first farmers and herdsmen, around 7500 years ago.

This deposit belongs to the area Muntanyes d'Alacant
