The archaeological complex encompasses Fuente del Moro and Remedios necropolis, with tombs carved into rock and stone slabs containing ancient burials.
The site contains remains from the Hispano-Visigothic period, dating back to the 6th and 7th centuries, including residential structures and service buildings.
Archaeological excavations revealed bronze belt buckles with plant motifs and ceramic jugs, indicating specific burial customs of the medieval period.
