Abstract

We deal with a recently discovered open air carving, at the council of Teo (La Corunna) where besides the usual themes found in the Galician art group (circular combinations, animal), a square motif, internally segmented, occupies the center of the surface, together with a dagger. The latter strongly resembles other representations found in North Iberia, namely Peña Tú (Asturias), belonging to the Schematic group of Iberian postpaleolithic art. Its chronology would span from the end of the Copper Age to the initial Bronze Age.
