Small, dank, unprotected, unvisited and roofless, this tomb has beautiful engravings of overlapping sets of concentric circles
which are similar to petroglyphs at Fuente de la Zarza, La Palma (Canary Islands).
Unfortunately, they have deteriorated since this photo was taken in the nineteen-seventies.

Photo taken in 1973.

Some of the petroglyphs ("rock art")
at Fuente de la Zarza, La Palma,
Canary Islands.

The effect is similar to that
of a comb on wet clay.
