Necrópolis Protohistòrica Del Coll del Moro
Necrópolis Protohistòrica Del Coll del Moro submitted by Maatje : Site in Spain Necrópolis Protohistòrica Del Coll del Moro dates from the 9th-4th centuries BCE. (Vote or comment on this photo)
Dating from the 9th-4th centuries BCE and built by small nomadic groups from the late bronze age Urnfield Culture and later. There are four types of burial mounds - see the photo captions. As the name suggests they cremated their dead with personal belongings and put the ashes in urns. The site is well documented in 3 languages, Spanish French and English and used by people who lived in the area of the IIberian Age who had some livestock and crops. It is situated on a high hilltop overlooking the valley.

It is signposted from the N-420. You can park at the restaurant Coll del Moro.
