Abstract
The discovery of numerous granite outcroppings with sets of cup-marks that indícate various sites is emphasized. Although in some cases these can be explained by the effect of erosión, in others they can be interpreted as the work of prehistoric groups who lived in the surroundings. There is a clear connection with nearby megalithic monuments in which similar cup- marks have sometimes been documented on several stones. The "Tierras Lineras" habitat (Late Neolithic-Calcolithic), located beside some of the granite outcroppings with cup-marks, has provided, among other findings, two small stones whose surface is covered with cup-marks of similar size and depth.
