Abstract: [EN] During the works of archaeological monitoring of a wind farm development in the Xiabre area (CJ 102A 2006/202-0), built up by ENGASA Eólica S.A., a previously unknown series of rock art sites were recognized which is located in municipality of Vilagarcía de Arousa. \nA total of 31 engraved rocks were documented, grouped in 14 different sites. Detailed tracings were made of either those with more complex motifs, more altered or closer to the development. The archeological works were carried out by the Laboratorio de Patrimonio, Paleoambiente e Paisaxe (IIT, USC), joint unit to the CSIC-Instituto de Estudos Galegos Padre Sarmiento, under the management of Rocío Varela and Yolanda Seoane.
