Archaeologists in Marbella, Spain, have unearthed sketches believed to be 200,000 years old.
The evacuation was led by the Municipality of Marbella's Department of Culture, Education, and Historical Heritage, which found a stone block with etchings, according to a press release.
A study is being conducted by the Department of Culture to confirm the age of the stone and its origin.
"The techniques applied for absolute dating consist of quartz analysis of different sediment samples, which will allow for a precise chronology of the samples," says the press release.
Fox News Digital reached out to the Municipality of Marbella for comment.
