The Indalo Man is a representation of a cave painting found in the Los Vélez area of the province of Almeria (which is in the region of Andalucia, Southern Spain). The cave painting was officially discovered in 1868 and made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1998. The cave paintings found are believed to be at least 4,500 years old. The Indalo Man is believed to be a representation of a prehistoric God who holds a Rainbow with open arms.
The Indalo Man is believed to bring good luck, health and love to those who own one. It is customary in the region of Almeria to paint the Indalo symbol on the front of houses and businesses to protect them from evil! The Indalo Man is an important symbol across the Region of Andalucia.
