Archaeological excavations in Spain

Overview

Archaeological activities in Spain have focused on diverse historical periods through various excavation and survey methods.

In Asturias, investigations at Punta Jarri utilize non-invasive technologies such as multichannel ground-penetrating radar, LiDAR, and micro-topographic mapping to document sub-surface structures. Concurrently, excavations at the Lucus Asturum site have uncovered a Roman domestic building with painted walls and ceramic finds, alongside a medieval burial of a young male and several infant graves.

In other regions, research at Motilla del Azuer in Daimiel is examining Bronze Age habitats and necropolises, with recent findings including lithic tools and ceramic remains. Meanwhile, at the Son Sard site in Son Servera, researchers identified a Roman building featuring opus signinum pavement and documented graves within an Andalusi-era necropolis, including a well-preserved adult tomb carved into bedrock.
