Abstract
We focus on the discovery of four black figures, of the most classic Levantine rock art style, in a previously unknown area: the river Mesa valley in the Jalon basin, that is the natural acces route to the South Meseta, in the Iberian System. The painted rock is located in a territory with thermal sources, very close to the spa resort of Jaraba. Its stylistic pattern corresponds with the Levantine “flying motion” archers, with thematical parallels in the group of the Bajo Aragon/Maestrazgo/Bajo Ebro, and it represents the westernmost Levantine rock art site in Aragon. Its location in a winding ravine reproduces the Valltorta scheme, and emphasises its character as a territorial marker, being a natural amphitheatre at the junction of two ravines, in the most visible zone of the hole route.
