Visit the Sampaio Ruins of Sampaio - Million

The Sampaio Rock Prints, located in the Parish of Millão are constituted by three different panels, all showing the same north / south orientation, facing the Rio Sabor. All engravings were obtained by perforation and go back to the Upper Palaeolithic. The first panel features a single engraved figure, representing an auroch, about 80 cm long, almost complete, with the exception of the backtack. The head is facing south, and is represented in great detail, with mouth, nostril, eye, ear and the two horns. From the head the lines of the back, the chest and the belly are drawn, and the outline of the front paw is also represented.
The second panel is displaced from the original site, constituting at present a loose block, possibly resulting in the preservation of a single incomplete figure, an auroque, with two heads in different positions, also facing south.
The third panel is under the second. Only a single trace, of an unidentified figure, is perceptible. It is partially covered by sediments deposited by the river, so it is possible that there are more traces of this figure.
