Paleolithic rock art discovered in Catalan cave

In 2019, paleolithic rock art was discovered in the Cova de la Font Major cave near l'Espluga de Francoli in Catalonia, findings now reported in Antiquity. The discovery was made by Josep Maria Vergès Bosch and Míriam Salas-Altès from Universitat Rovira i Virgili and IPHES-CERCA. For decades, Catalonia was considered almost devoid of such monuments, primarily associated with the Frankocantabrian region.
