 | | Radiocarbon dating indicates that these spectacular ancient images, including hunting scenes, amphibians, felines, guanacos, or llamas, and over 900 human handprints, were painted by semi-nomadic peoples during three distinct eras. |
 | | The first, encompassing the period 7400 to 5400 BC, is characterized by dynamic fl, ochre and yellow images. |
 | | Scenes from the second period, 5400 - 1500 BC, are predominantly white and depict the dissociation between man and animal. |
