Cerro de las Cabezas, Archaeological site in Valdepeñas, Spain.
The archaeological complex extends across 20,000 square meters, featuring stone foundations, defensive walls, and ancient residential structures from an Iberian settlement.
The settlement flourished between the 7th and 3rd centuries BC, serving as a strategic point for controlling routes between the Guadalquivir marshes and Meseta Sur.
Excavations revealed pottery with Eastern-influenced decorations, metal objects, and funerary practices including cremation tombs near the settlement walls.
The archaeological park maintains regular visiting hours and provides interpretative facilities for understanding the ancient Iberian urban development and daily life.
The site contains a 1,600-meter defensive wall system with Cyclopean bastions, demonstrating advanced military architecture of the Iberian period.
