Soto de Medinilla, Archaeological site near Pisuerga River in Valladolid, Spain.

The excavation site spans two hectares on a meander of the Pisuerga River, featuring remains of circular houses and adobe walls.

Between 800 BC and 200 BC, this settlement developed through 16 occupation levels, forming an artificial hill of archaeological deposits.

The inhabitants practiced child burials beneath their homes, following Mediterranean customs, and manufactured simple ceramic pieces with bronze alloy tools.

The archaeological site received cultural heritage status in February 2021, requiring visitors to obtain permits for access and research purposes.

The settlement contains an unusually high number of horse remains compared to other Iron Age sites, indicating specialized horse breeding activities.
