Necrópolis de Los Villares, Iberian necropolis in Hoya-Gonzalo, Spain
The Necropolis of Los Villares occupies 0.5 hectares near the ancient Heraclea Road, containing numerous burial structures from different social classes.
This burial ground remained active from the late 6th century to the early 4th century BCE, marking a significant phase in Iberian history.
The excavated tombs reveal social hierarchies through their structures, from simple pit graves to larger tumular tombs for high-status individuals.
Located 4 kilometers from Hoya-Gonzalo municipality, the site presents archaeological findings including Greek ceramics and funeral monuments.
The site contains the largest Iberian sculpture ever found, a 1.8-meter-tall warrior on horseback dating from around 490 BCE.
