Puig Ciutat, a Roman site
Discover a Roman-era site, violently destroyed by Julius Caesar's troops in 49 BC.
Its inhabitants had to abandon it quickly, leaving behind many everyday objects: household crockery (craters, small glasses), amphoras and storage containers, black glazed pottery, saws, sickles, loom weights, games, javelin lace and catapult, slingshot projectiles, etc. The site was never occupied again, and has been preserved in very good condition. Thanks to these unique facts we know in detail how they lived, what they ate or how their inhabitants fought.
