Overview:-
- Cave of Altamira in Northern Spain is the first site in the world to feature upper Paleolithic cave paintings. The paintings are also one of best preserved cave paintings in the world as the inner walls of the cave are safe from climate influences. The paintings represent wild mammals and human hands. The rock fall which sealed the cave entrance before 13000 years ago also became a factor for the rock paintings to remain to be in best preserved state. A number of mysterious signs were also depicted on wall of Altamira cave.
