On the way to A Laxe

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?

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.
