Las Labradas

Las Labradas is an archaeological site on the coast of San Ignacio municipality in southern Sinaloa, Mexico, containing the largest concentration of petroglyphs in the country with over 600 engravings inventoried. The carvings depict humans, animals, geometric motifs, and abstract forms on volcanic rocks within a tidal shore environment, a unique setting unparalleled elsewhere. Dating from the late Archaic to Middle Formative period (c. 1000 BC-300 AD), the site was declared a zone of archaeological monuments and placed on the UNESCO Tentative List in 2012.
