Zusammenfassung

Today, despite the notable progress on the knowledge about Galician carvings, we still lack an updated census of these and, as a result, we do not have adequate information about the precise number or the geographical distribution of the main groups of motifs that make up this artistic phenomenon. In order to tackle this problem, we have gone through the Xunta de Galicia's Catalogue of the Archaeological Heritage, obtaining a database of 3361 petroglyphs.
