Abstract:		 Like so much rock art, the Neolithic/Bronze Age petroglyphs of Galicia have been studied mainly as a source of stylistic information. This paper contends that it may be more rewarding to see them as a vital component of the prehistoric landscape. Their siting in relation to Galician ecology and the movement of wild animals across the terrain is studied. The organisation of panels of carved rock at a more local level is also considered with an attempt to interpret their distinctive use of the local topography. Intead of treating rock carvings as if they were portable artefacts, a more flexible approach may help to break down the functionalist bias of landscape archaeology.
