Amaya, human settlement
Amaya is a Roman city in the Province of Burgos that now operates as an archaeological site. The remains spread across elevated terrain and still show structures from ancient houses, streets, and defensive walls from that era.
The site was founded during the Roman period and developed into a major settlement in northern Spain. After the decline of the Roman Empire, the city was gradually abandoned and eventually depopulated completely.
The site sits on a hilltop and can be explored on foot, with sturdy shoes recommended for uneven terrain. The view from above helps you get your bearings for exploring the entire area.
