In 1897 a mysterious statue depicting a rather masculine woman donning a headdress was unearthed on a farm near Elche in southeastern Spain. For years historians have debated its origins (and even its sex). The decision that most have arrived at is that the statue was likely carved by the early Iberians some time before the birth of Christ.
La Dama de Elche is perhaps the greatest example of early peninsular art and is housed at the National Archeological Museum, along with other compelling finds from the country. The replica of the caves at Altamira is worth a peek since it takes an act of congress to see the real deal in northern Spain.
