Arte rupestre in San Martín de los Andes

The Spanish expression arte rupestre refers to any kind of prehistoric sketch or outline made on rock faces and cave walls. Argentina is famous for its Cueva de las Manos ("Cave of the Hands"), a cave located in the province of Santa Cruz, Argentina, which is very definitely worth seeing; "some of the hand impressions date to around 550 BC, the positive impressions from 180 BC, while the hunting drawings are calculated to more than 10,000 years old" (source Wikipedia). What we have here is a modern, graffiti version, on a cliff face in San Martín, which I doubt will be around in 10,000 years.
