Abstract

We offer in this paper the first results of a research project still in course, aiming at the study of Galician pe-troglyphs from the viewpoint of Landscape Archaeology. To that end, we emphasize the analysis of locational fac-tors of carved rocks and their relationship with the su-rrounding landscape, rather than sty/istic or artistic as-pects. In this paper three main areas are considered, two coastal and another inland. Our observations point to-wards a significant link of the carved rocks with natural routes or good grazing areas. Nevertheless, the differences between the three zones considered would suggest situa-tions of variable pressure on natural resources and, rela-ted to that, significant differences in the distribution and density of petroglyphs
