On the way to A Laxe

(Live on the Camino, but I don't know how to post with that tag)

The Camino Sanabres winds through small stone villages and along vast green pastures rimmed in stone walls. Sometimes you walk on Roman roads. Beautiful countryside! Just before A Lax I saw this added to the top of a stone wall. The farmer probably found it on his land and decided to display it. I wonder if he knew it was a very ancient Celtic petroglyph?

Here is what the AI copilot said about my photo

Nobody else I've talked to has seen this, but it is right on the camino. Here are the map co-ordinates: 42.619891,-8.120861

Here is an example I found of some Bronze age petroglyphs near Pontevedra, about 66K away. So what I'm saying is, not having known this, I must have a Keen Eye!

Jill, that is so fascinating to read more about the petroglyph! The cluster in Pontevedra is amazing!
Yes, you have a keen eye! Thanks so much for sharing this little piece of history.
I'm glad we looked for it since you provided the coordinates. Your picture is better than mine and shows the rings a bit shadowed.

I'm so glad you went to the trouble to find it! Cool, huh?

More than cool; it's awesome and loved that you did some research on it.
