These paintings are the first ones located in the central zone of San Juan and their discovery constitutes a quantitatively significant contribution to the provincial record of sites with this type of materiality. The production of these images is interpreted in terms of a possible performance of rituals related to the protection of camelids herds, their abundance or some other aspect linked to this key element in the diet of the local inhabitants. The process of finding two of these works is described, based on a hypothetical-deductive approach elaborated to explain the discovery of the first one. In addition, the relative chronology of this record is discussed for the numerous petroglyphs present in two of the sites analyzed, as well as their possible production by hunter-gatherer groups prior to their authors. Se presenta un conjunto de pinturas rupestres descubiertas en tres sitios de la sierra Pie de Palo. Estas pinturas son las primeras localizadas en la zona central de San Juan y su hallazgo constituye un aporte cuantitativamente significativo para el registro provincial de sitios con este tipo de materialidades. La producción de estas imágenes se interpreta en función de una posible realización de rituales vinculados con la protección de las manadas de camélidos, su abundancia o algún otro aspecto asociado con este elemento clave en la dieta de los pobladores locales. Se describe el proceso de hallazgo de dos paneles con pinturas en función de un planteo hipotético-deductivo elaborado para explicar el descubrimiento de otro anterior. Además, se discute la posible realización de estas pinturas por parte de cazadores-recolectores anteriores a los grupos que posteriormente ocuparon la zona y produjeron numerosos petroglifos en dos de los sitios analizados. Apresentamos um grupo de pinturas rupestres descobertas em três sítios na cordilheira de Pie de Palo. Essas pinturas são as primeiras a serem encontradas na área central de San Juan e sua descoberta constitui uma contribuição quantitativamente significativa para o registro provincial de sítios com esse tipo de material. A produção dessas imagens é interpretada em termos da possível realização de rituais ligados à proteção de rebanhos de camelídeos, sua abundância ou algum outro aspecto ligado a esse elemento fundamental na dieta dos habitantes locais. O processo de descoberta de duas dessas obras é descrito em termos de uma abordagem hipotético-dedutiva desenvolvida para explicar a descoberta da primeira. Além disso, a cronologia relativa desse registro é discutida em relação aos inúmeros petróglifos presentes em dois dos locais analisados e sua possível produção por grupos de caçadores-coletores antes de seus autores.
