The proper application of a method of protection and preventing impacts to Archaeological Heritage, developed because of the installation of an electrical power line, has led to the discovery of the necropolis beside Cerro de las Cabezas (Valdepeñas, Ciudad Real).

The coincidence of the first th...

Se intenta demostrar que las fuentes griegas y latinas, al mencionar regiones o divisiones administrativas hispanas como carpetania, hablan de una realidad romana que no refleja el mundo prerromano. estas entidades no constituyen tribus o pueblos entendidos como grupos de especial cohesión social o política.

Two votive epigraphs found in Talavera de la Reina (ancient Caesarobriga) are published, foundes in a context of the reuse of Visigothic structures.
