The Cuevas de las Manos

by lihue - last update: Apr 17, 2001

829 images of human hands are to be found in these famous caves nestled in the Rio Pinturas canyon. These painings are estimated 9000 years old! One thing which is puzzling is the fact that of all of these hands only 36 are right hands. There are normal, as well as inverse prints and nobody knows to date, who painted them.
