Annotations

"Cerro de los Castellones" is an archaeological site discovered during surveys conducted in the archaeological context of "Cerro de la Mora," which corresponds to a rural settlement on a hillside.

It is a site with a limited surface area located on the left bank of the Milanos stream on a hilly mound with an elevation of 618 meters, northwest of the urban center of Huétor Tájar.

The archaeological findings primarily focus on the southern and eastern slopes of the hill, primarily belonging to the Iberian, Roman, and Medieval periods. However, there are also traces from the Protohistoric and Late Bronze Age periods, such as the remains of Phoenician typology. Among these Orientalizing remains, numerous Phoenician amphorae of the R-1 type stand out, and for their uniqueness, remains of a tripod bowl.
