Cueva Lucero (English: Star Cave) is a cave and
pictographs "making it one of the best examples of aboriginal rock art in the Antilles." It has been known to archeologists since at least the early 1900s. Most of its images are zoomorphic. The site is known to locals including rock-climbers and spelunkers and there is some modern graffiti.[2]
The cave was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[3]
