The boars are megalithic zoomorphic sculptures, specifically from the time of the Vetones, a civilization of the 5th century BC. who lived in the lands that today are Cáceres and Salamanca.
They used to represent pigs, wild boars or bulls and exceptionally bears. Although they regularly have funerary inscriptions, their function is not at all clear since they were also located on the limits of grazing areas.
