Monte Cildá, Archaeological site near Olleros de Pisuerga, Spain
Monte Cildá rises 975 meters above sea level, featuring two plateaus at 920 and 950 meters, bordered by the Pisuerga River forming the Horadada Canyon.
The site witnessed conflicts between Romans and Cantabrians in 25-26 BC, leading to Roman occupation and subsequent fortification during the 5th century AD.
Archaeological excavations at Monte Cildá uncovered defensive walls, funerary steles, and epigraphic findings that document continuous settlements in the region.
The archaeological site requires local guidance to access, with information available at the tourism office in Aguilar de Campoo.
Monte Cildá contains evidence of the ancient Civitas Maggaviensium, identified by researchers as the Cantabrian city of Vellica mentioned by Ptolemy.
