There appear to be two areas of rock art here...

"Cerro de San Isidro (Domingo García). This is the most important centre of the whole region, with more than 50 palaeolithic figures. It is located on the hillside of Cuesta Grande to the S-SE of the municipality of Domingo García at 940-980 m above sea level, among numerous springs. Schist outcrops are scattered all over this hill and around the Chapel of San Isidro, and it is on these that the palaeolithic and postpalaeolithic engravings were made, extending for approximately a square kilometre. A total of 19 rocks and 39 panels have been documented, on which 57 figures of palaeolithic style have been identified, as well as numerous postpalaeolithic engravings."

"Canteras (Domingo García). Second in importance after the Cerro de San Isidro, and located to the west and on the opposite slope of Cuesta Grande at 920 m above sea level, near an ancient lake. Seven rocks with engravings have been discovered, with 14 panels and at least 37 figures, among which are some outstanding caprids."
