Resumen
Durante la historia la provincia de Jaén ha estado ocupada por distintas culturas que han dejado a su paso un rico patrimonio rupestre. La mayor parte de esas manifestaciones están declaradas Bien de Interés Cultural y recogidas en el Catálogo General de Patrimonio Histórico Andaluz, destacando Sierra Morena como la comarca con mayor concentración de enclaves y predominando en la provincia el arte rupestre de estilo esquemático. No obstante, a día de hoy aún hay cuevas que continúan siendo habitadas o utilizadas con fines turísticos o recreativos. El estudio realizado a través de distintas fuentes indica que debido a la fragilidad de este tipo de patrimonio no está siendo explotado turísticamente, al igual que en la mayoría de los casos no se lleva a cabo ningún tipo de medida para su conservación y difusión.
