Talampaya 8

Talampaya, La Rioja

Not only dinosaurs rests are here, but also a part of our history ...
The human activities between 120 and 1180 years of our era, used caves and eaves of the place housing, deposits and cemeteries.
At the open sky above the vertical walls and huge rocks, a large quantity of rupestrian paintings (anthropomorphous and zoo morphs) and abstracts (geometrical) expressed a harmonically fusion between nature and culture, composing one of the most relevant locations of Argentian rupestrian manifestations.
The feelings, the need of express of our primitive inhabitants, the real owners of this land,
can be seen and felt here.. simple, effective art, telling us about their life,
and also about their magic universe..
