Yacimientos rupestres

Spanish to English Art/Literary Archaeology
Hola a todos! Espero que alguien pueda ayudarme con este término.

La frase en español es:

"... la Montaña de Tindaya, considerada sagrada por los antiguos habitantes de la isla y en la que se encuentra uno de los principales yacimientos rupestres de las Canarias."

Mi traducción es:

"... the Mountain of Tindaya, considered by the ancient natives a sacred mountain and where it is located one of the main ......... of the Canary Islands."

Gracias por la ayuda!

You're welcome, Laura, but you really should not close questions immediately, site rules ask that you wait at least 24 hours. Saludos.

repository of rock art

everyone is right on with "rock art," but for goodness sake, do not translate yacimientos as deposits, which would be fine in another context but not here. I suggest "repository".

"The Sahara Desert is a giant repository of Prehistoric Rock Art."
www.the153club.org/rockart.html

"Southern Africa contains one of the world's great repositories of rock art."
www.getty.edu/conservation/field_projects/sarap/index.html
