Archaeological research and preservation efforts in Spain have focused on both Roman and prehistoric sites. In San Pedro Manrique, investments were directed toward the Los Casares Celtiberian site to upgrade laboratory facilities and visitor information systems using augmented reality. In Segovia, excavations at the Confloenta site revealed the western portico of a 1st-century AD Roman Forum.

Subsequent excavations in Teruel and Toledo have uncovered further historical structures. In La Caridad de Caminreal, researchers identified Roman domestic structures, including a kitchen area with ancient hearths and various ceramic items. In Los Yébenes, the ‘Entre dos tierras’ project discovered a 5,000-year-old megalithic complex in the Montes de Toledo, featuring a central tumulus and a circular stone structure known as a cromlech used for observing seasonal cycles.
