Abstract
La prospección sistemática de arte rupestre en el
Ayuntamiento de Porto do Son (A Coruña) ha permitido
la localización de casi dos centenares de grabados, dos
de ellos en abrigos graníticos. A estos últimos se suman
otros dos casos en las comarcas occidentales de Galicia.
La temática presente es idéntica a la del arte galaico al
aire libre, datado grosso modo en el III milenio a.C.
Estos hallazgos plantean, por otra parte, la intencionada
restricción física sobre la visualización de este fenómeno.
La convivencia de motivos en el interior de cavidades
con otros situados al aire libre e incluso en frisos verticales fácilmente perceptibles demuestra la variabilidad de
estas manifestaciones y nos permite refl exionar sobre la
audiencia a la que habrían estado destinadas las diferentes estaciones rupestres.
The systematic survey of rock art in the area of the town council of Porto do Son (A Coruña) has allowed us to fi nd nearly two hundred carved surfaces, two of them located within rock shelters. Two other examples in the Western regions of Galicia must be added to those. The motifs inside the rock shelters are exactly the same as those found in the open-air petroglyphs, which can be roughly dated to the third millennium BC. These fi nds attest to the existence of an intentional constraint on the visibility of these graphic manifestations. The coexistence of motifs inside cavities and others located outdoors, even on fairly conspicuous vertical friezes, shows the variability of this phenomenon and allows us to refl ect on the different audiences at which the rock sites would have been aimed
