description | Fifty years after Ripoll’s works on Santolea rock-art shelters, a new systematic study of El Torico and El Arquero (Castellote, Teruel) decorated groups is presented in this paper. There have been carried out an exhaustive graphic documentation and its digital treatment, by the means of the DStretch plugin to ImageJ. This method has allowed us to obtain new digital traces that underline the importance of the paintings, both for stylistic considerations and for themes and scene compositions. It is also presented in this study, for the first time, a new Schematic panel. New perspectives are opened in our approach to the analysis of the human and symbolic occupation of the territory, in addition to the ritual use of the sites along time. The study of these two shelters serves as an initial purpose of a further and wider analysis of the whole Guadalope basin, which includes other seven Levantine rock-art sites, whose thematic and stylistic parallels point out the existence of exchange contacts and social networks on different levels: local, regional and supra-regional. |
