This book deals with the documentation and interpretation of the rock sites located in La Mancha center (Spain), from the detailed study of the symbols that have been engraved in the rock. These sites, from historical times, can provide valuable information for the study of the mentalities and beliefs of the popular classes during the Modern Age, strongly influenced by the atmosphere created after the Counter-Reformation. Crosses, calvaries, orbs, human and animal representations, letters, cup-marks and game boards make up an authentic symbolic universe, of clear Christian roots, whose understanding is possible to achieve even though it requires collaboration between multiple fields of knowledge such as archaeology, theology, numismatics, heraldry, architecture, sculpture, painting… Unfortunately, researchers have paid scant attention to the issue at hand, assuming paradigms that from our point of view should be reviewed, such as the authorship of the petroglyphs or their chrono-cultural affiliation. The study of the rock formations located in La Mancha center can shed light on these and other subjects, providing a good starting point in order to improve the documentation and interpretation of historical rock engravings in other parts of the world. u El presente libro aborda la documentacion e interpretacion de las estaciones rupestres localizadas en La Mancha centro (Espana), a partir del estudio pormenorizado de los simbolos que han sido grabados en la roca. Estas estaciones, de epoca historica, pueden proporcionar valiosa informacion para el estudio de las mentalidades y creencias de las clases populares durante la Edad Media y la Edad Moderna, fuertemente influenciadas por la atmosfera creada tras la Contrarreforma. Cruces, calvarios, orbes, representaciones humanas y de animales, letras, cazoletas y tableros de juego conforman un autentico universo simbolico, de clara raiz cristiana, cuya comprension es posible alcanzar aunque requiere de la colaboracion entre multiples ramas del saber como la arqueologia, la teologia, la numismatica, la heraldica, la arquitectura, la escultura, la pintura… Desafortunadamente, hasta el momento los investigadores han prestado escasa atencion al tema que nos ocupa, asumiendo paradigmas que desde nuestro punto de vista deben ser revisados, como la autoria de los petroglifos o su adscripcion crono-cultural. El estudio de las estaciones rupestres localizadas en La Mancha centro puede arrojar luz sobre estos y otros temas, proporcionando un buen punto de partida de cara a mejorar la documentacion e interpretacion de los grabados rupestres de epoca historica en otros puntos del mundo.
