The "La Pintada" rock art site consists of two different areas.

One area is situated in a Canyon with cave paintings and rock engravings (from around 800 CE). The other area is situated on the alluvial plain of the Canyon with remains of seasonal camping sites.

Archaeologists found stone tools, ceramics, sea shells and grinding artifacts there.
