Cave paintings are almost unique on the Spanish Mediterranean coast

La Laja Cave is a strategically located cave with extraordinary cave paintings that are almost unique on the Spanish Mediterranean coast. Laja Alta Cave is located next to the valley of the Gomero Gorge, overlooking the Algeciras Bay and the Rock of Gibraltar. This feature is remarkable because of the uniqueness of the schematic cave drawings made by ancient artists on the sandstone in the caves, a veritable catalogue of various vessels dating from about two centuries of the first millennium BC. There we will find the ships used by the first sailors and colonists of the Eastern Mediterranean, seen by the painters of La Habá Alta, anchored in the port of the nearby pre-Roman town of "Carteia" (in the Bay of Algeciras). #2024TravelReview #SpainTravel #Andalucia
