The Iberian wolf Canis lupus signatus is a subspecies of grey wolf that inhabits the forest and plains of northern Portugal and northwestern Spain . Features and adaptations The Iberian wolf differs from the more common Eurasian Wolf with its thinner build, the white marks on the upper lips, the dark marks on the tail and a pair of dark marks in its front legs that give it its subspecies name, signatus marked . The subspecies differentiation may have developed at the end of the Pleistocene Ice Age s due to the isolation of the Iberian Peninsula when glacier barriers grew in the Pyrenees and eventually reached the Gulf of Biscay in the West and the Mediterranean in the East.

Almost all extant works of Iberian sculpture visibly reflect Ancient Greece Greek and Phoenicia n influences, and Assyria n and Egypt ian influences derived from those yet they have their own unique character. Within this complex stylistic heritage, individual works can be placed within a spectrum of influences some of more obvious Phoenician derivation, and some so similar to Greek works that they could have been directly imported from that region. Overall the degree of influence is correlated to the work s region of origin, and hence they are classified into groups on that basis. The Levantine Group File Bicha de Balazote M.A.N.
