Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I made this illustration of Cabuniaegino, a pre-roman deity of the Cantabri. His name is only mentioned in one inscription on an ara (a type of votive altar) found near the oppidum at Mount Cildá and has been interpreted as a god of healing and medicine. 110
Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 17/09/2026This year's illustration for the "Altamira para escolares" educational activities program at @museodealtamira.bsky.social focuses on children again but also on nature and our relationship as humans with our environment. 121
Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Aren't petroglyphs fascinating? I drew this panel filled with dots and crosses from Valderredible in preparation for my archaeological drawing workshop at Tribus del Íber a couple of weekends ago. 🖌 Do you like more just the ink drawing or the one with the watercolor background? 100

Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 25/06/2026What was spring like in the north of Iberia during the late Magdalenian period? I imagine it may have looked something like this. 194
Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 17/06/2026The baby blackbirds in my flowerpot have grown so much! They are about to jump out of the nest any moment now so I made a cute drawing and wrote a bit a bout them (in Spanish) on my Ko-fi. You can read it here -> ko-fi.com/post/Hay-mir... 011
Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 04/06/2026Two little blackbirds have been born minutes ago in a flowerpot on my balcony 🥰 They are so so tiny!! And look very hungry. Don't worry, their parents are taking good care of them and us humans at home are not interfering 🤗 010

Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 29/11/2025A COZY DWELLING - SO MANY COLORS #prehistovember2025 I joined two prompts together to imagine the appearance of an Iron Age hut. A hearth, herbs, warm blankets, things for weaving and a sleepy scruffy dog by your side are the epitome of coziness and what everybody needs to be happy in my opinion. 020

Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 24/11/2025MADE OF STONE #prehistovember2025 One of my favourite places to hike to is marked by many peculiar stones, both natural (although local legends state they were dropped by the devil himself when he went to build the Roman aqueduct in Soria -go figure) and man-carved. 220
Marina Lezcano @mlezcano.bsky.social · 20/11/2025NEW ACQUAINTANCES #prehistovember2025 Almost 40,000 years ago the first "modern humans" arrived in Europe and found it was already populated. Artifacts suggest there might have been an exchange of either material goods. Current genetics confirm sapiens and H. neanderthals exchanged more than tools 😏 032
