Arce-Mirapérez, Archaeological site near Miranda de Ebro, Spain

The archaeological site extends over 26 hectares between the Ebro and Zadorra rivers, occupying a strategic position near an ancient ford.

Archaeological studies conducted between 2004 and 2006 by Rafael Varón Hernández established the exact location and extent of the ancient Autrigonian city of Deobriga.

The name Deobriga combines the root 'Deo', related to divine elements, with 'briga', meaning fortress in ancient Celtic languages.

The site remains buried under agricultural land, with ongoing farming activities occasionally revealing stones from ancient walls.

Two necropolises associated with Deobriga were discovered in 1970, one near FEFASA houses and another in Vetrusa, Álava territory.
