Résumé
In this paper, we analysed the state of conservation of the paleoichnological site of La Virgen del Campo located in Enciso, La Rioja, (Spain). First, a bibliographic review was carried out, researching about the interventions made on the site and the materials applied. We made a conservation study, in which we analysed the causes of deterioration, using different methods, and pathologies. These pathologies are identified and assigned to a defined category according to ICOMOS glossary. In addition, we carried out an intervention proposal. This has been done, thanks to the bibliographic review and the studies that we accomplished at the laboratory. Finally, we made a study of the restoration materials, specially focused on different lime mortars. We tested their suitability with the rock of the site at the laboratory and then during the field season.
