Cave paintings and megalithism, the first forms of sacred art, were practiced around the world at different times. After the flourishing periods of paleolithic rock painting aprox. 20000 years ago, particularly in Western Europe the peoples of the Neolithic age (about 5000 to 2000 BC) erected fascinating megaliths (literally = large stones) which still raise many questions about its technical and religious aspects. Several of the most singular examples of these ancient monuments can be found in the environs of the enchanting town of Ronda. On an all day excursion we visit both an exceptional stone age-cave with more than 3000 graphical themes and the most important megaliths, immersing ourselves in the mysterious world of our remote ancestors.
