Here, you will not only discover impressive stalactites and stalagmites, but also some of the oldest known cave paintings in the world. Recent research has shown that these paintings have even led to an important breakthrough in our understanding of prehistory. The caves are located about 35 minutes from Finca Las Nuevas and make a unique day trip for anyone interested in history, nature, and archaeology.   <\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_fullwidth_header][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;off|desktop&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Market Information Section&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.22.2&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;3em||3em||true|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;1em||1em||true|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_3,2_3&#8243; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|tablet&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Market Information Title Area&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;2em|0px|2em|0px|true|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;0em|0px|1em|0px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0px|0px|0px|0px|true|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text admin_label=&#8221;Title&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; text_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_font=&#8221;||||||||&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Lato||||||||&#8221; header_2_font_size=&#8221;36px&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.5em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||-19px|||&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;left&#8221; hover_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243; header_2_font_size_tablet=&#8221;36px&#8221; header_2_font_size_phone=&#8221;32px&#8221; header_2_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; sticky_enabled=&#8221;0&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2>The oldest cave paintings in the world!<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;2_3&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; link_text_color=&#8221;#F47A36&#8243; custom_margin_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; custom_margin_phone=&#8221;||1em||false|false&#8221; custom_margin_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;off|phone&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; link_text_color__hover_enabled=&#8221;on|hover&#8221; link_text_color__hover=&#8221;#B5BA05&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Why are the Ardales Caves so special?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>For a long time, scientists assumed that only modern humans (Homo sapiens) created cave paintings. However, research published in 2018 showed that some of the red pigments in the Ardales Caves are more than 60,000 years old. This means they were likely applied by Neanderthals, thousands of years before Homo sapiens settled in this part of Europe.  <\/p>\n<p>This discovery changed the global perception of Neanderthals. The findings show that they too possessed symbolic thinking and artistic abilities. <\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; admin_label=&#8221;Quote Text Area&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;2em|0px||0px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding_tablet=&#8221;2em|0px||0px|false|false&#8221; custom_padding_phone=&#8221;0em|0px|0em|0px|true|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_padding=&#8221;|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; custom_padding__hover=&#8221;|||&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What are the Ardales Caves?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The cave is officially known as the Cueva de Ardales or Cueva de Do\u00f1a Trinidad Grund. This limestone cave is located at an altitude of approximately 565 metres above Ardales and has a geological history spanning more than 2.5 million years. <\/p>\n<p>The entrance to the cave became visible again in 1821 after an earthquake. In 1860, the cave came into the possession of Do\u00f1a Trinidad Grund, to whom the cave owes its second name. <\/p>\n<p>In 1918, the French prehistorian Henri Breuil conducted the first extensive study of the cave. At that time, twenty animal figures were documented. <\/p>\n<p>Today, more than 1,000 images and markings have been recorded, spread across hundreds of locations throughout the cave.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color=&#8221;#54752B&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;1em|1em|1em|1em|true|true&#8221; border_radii=&#8221;on|5px|5px|5px|5px&#8221; box_shadow_style=&#8221;preset3&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.27.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#E0E6D9&#8243; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#E0E6D9&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221; background__hover_enabled=&#8221;off|hover&#8221; background_color__hover=&#8221;#8300E9&#8243; background_enable_color__hover=&#8221;on&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What can you see in the Ardales Caves? <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>During a visit, you can see:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prehistoric cave paintings and pigment markings<\/li>\n<li>Impressive stalactites and stalagmites<\/li>\n<li>Underground chambers and galleries<\/li>\n<li>Archaeological sites where stone and bone tools have been found<\/li>\n<li>A cave that has largely remained in its original state<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What makes this cave special is its authentic experience.
