Piedras Letradas ('Inscribed Stone') is a shallow cave containing scores of TaÃno petroglyphs and pictograms, mostly depicting animals and simplistic human-like figures. The site is a good 30km northwest of Constanza via the town of La Culeta. The road to La Culeta is paved, but it deteriorates quickly after that – you’ll need a 4WD.
