On 6 and 7 October, a workshop was held at the Faculty of Geography and History of the University of Salamanca to present the latest developments at the Siega Verde Palaeolithic open-air art site (Alba de Tormes, Salamanca). This meeting, entitled “Actualidad de la investigación en la Estación Paleolítica de Siega Verde”, was organised by CENIEH (National Centre for Research on Human Evolution, Burgos) and the Regional Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Sport, through the Directorate General of Cultural Heritage, with the collaboration of the Department of Prehistory, Ancient History and Archaeology of the University of Salamanca, within the PaleoArte project of the Spain – Portugal Cross-border Cooperation Operational Programme 2014-2020 (Interreg V-A).

Among the 15 papers presented, which analysed the current state of research on Siega Verde and the sites of the Côa Valley (Portugal), our director, Olivia Rivero, presented the research carried out at other open-air rock art sites, with the paper entitled “Arte paleolítico al aire libre en la Meseta Norte castellana: los yacimientos de Domingo García (Segovia) y La Salud (Salamanca)”.
