Carved stones



In the landscape around Mérida, rivers were the most important elements for humans during prehistoric periods. 



From the Paleolithic to Chalcolithic period, humans inhabited areas highly influenced by rivers. In these areas an important lithic industry was developed.


 Currently, along the riverbanks near Mérida we can find stones that were carved by people more than five thousand years ago.
