Alpera Caves
Alpera Caves
two caves and three niches near the settlement of Alpera, 55 km east of Albacete, Spain; a site of Upper Paleolithic rock paintings.
The paintings are of particular interest in the Vieja (Old) Cave, where a hunting scene in reds and browns covers earlier pictures. As a result of the many layers of paintings and the complexity of the drawing, interpretations of specific details are open to controversy.
